About Pardus Linux
"Pardus is a Linux based, free software licensed national operating system developed by TUBITAK/UEKAE. Pardus comes with just one CD, containing all the drivers and internet tools, office set, multimedia players, editors, games and many other applications aiming at meeting all the desktop needs of a informatics-literate computer user; is easily installed and even easier to use.
Pardus has a full support for Turkish, can be installed in 12 different languages and can run in more than 60 languages. Pardus is used by hundreds of thousand of users around the globe, not to mention many public organizations, government entities, non-governmental organizations, universities, and private businesses."
One of the most revolutionary and innovative changes with Pardus is the ability of delta packages, making it unnecessary to download the whole application in an update or upgrade. Considerthat the application the user listens to his/her MP3 files has released a new version. It is not necessary to search for, find, download, uninstall the old version and install the new version by clicking many 'Next' buttons. Pardus Package Manager, running on top of PiSi, fetches all updates with the click of a button. In its simplest terms, Package Manager downloads only the 'difference' of the old and new versions, a small delta file in technical terms. With this new feature, updates are now no more than 10 percent of the original package in terms of size. In other terms, Pardus 2009 is the best friend of users with limited internet connectivity, preserving their quota, and as such is a model of efficiency, although delta files have been used by other distributors already.
Some features of PiSi include:
Uses the LZMA compression algorithm
Written in Python
Package sources are written in XML and Python
Database access implemented with Berkeley DB
Integrates low-level and high-level package operations (dependency resolution)
Framework approach to build applications and tools upon
Beginning with Pardus delta packages are on by default.
YALI
YALI (Yet Another Linux Installer) is the first Pardus software a user encounters. Basically, it recognizes the hardware and installs Pardus software from the installation media (i.e CD) to a hard disk partition user selects. YALI is higher performing compared to other installers. In order to install Pardus, you just need enough disk space. YALI can handle resizing of the NTFS partitions found on the disk.
