'''BasicLinux''' also known as '''BasLinux''', is a [[mini Linux]] distribution optimized for old ([[Intel 386|386]] - [[Intel 486|486]]) [[Personal computer|PCs]].
It's based on stripped down version of [[Slackware]] 3.5 and uses a obsolete, but small, v2.2.26 [[Linux kernel|kernel]] with [[busybox]] to provide a low-[[RAM]] [[Linux]]{{Fact|date=May 2008}}, capable of browsing the web, doing [[email]], and functioning as an [[X terminal]].
It's offered in 2 versions. A [[hard drive]] one that boots from [[DOS]], and a [[floppy drive]] one, that uses 2 disks.
Both versions can be used with a [[Intel 386|386 CPU]]. The Hard Drive installable version requires 3 MB of RAM and 20 MB of space in the Hard Drive, plus a [[bootable]] DOS. The floppy version needs 12 MB of RAM.
