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.

PiSi package management

PiSi (Packages Installed Successfully as Intended, /ˈpiːsiː/) is the package management system of Pardus. It is the primary tool for installing, upgrading and removing software packages. PiSi stores and handles the dependencies for the various packages, libraries, and COMAR tasks. "Pisi" is a Turkish word meaning "kitty", intended as a pun on the distribution's name.

Pardus2011.A new and unique implementation of KDE..!:hap2:
 
There is nothing new about pardus. Have used it quite a few times and the most polished feature is its installer based on QT.

The most beautifully crafted installer ever seen on any distro. Rest is just gimmick. Many packages are broken and needs fixing.

Its backed by Turkish government and is a national distro there.
 
^^Not all are based on debian..!ubuntu is based on debian..

Pardus is built from scratch and it is not based on debian..:D

Yea there is no difference in any linux all have the same Kernel the difference is in the implementation,framework,bug fixes,package management etc..!
