INCLUDES small but effective 'Eolie' Internet browser.
Regardng Internet browser.
I see no point in bloating a base iso with any large browser users may well not want.
Since fully-Arch-Linux-compatible KLA-OT2baseCE-1.8 comes with official and complete pacman package manager (think of it like Quickpet...).
To install Firefox or Chromium, you simply need to open a terminal and (assuming you logged in as user root) enter command:

smbpasswd -a root

Beautiful...JUST Beautiful!!!

Smooth and fast to the extreme via QEMU ISO file operations.

Session Management also work as expected.

@Sofiya this OS looks great. It's on my daily driver hard drive and I'll be diving into it as the weeks go by:

KLA-xfce
KLA-ot2
KLV-airedale
KLV-spectr
fossapup64_9.5
F96-CE
jackalpup0.0

So I'm pretty deep in Kennel Linux. It's amazing what the team has cranked out in the past few months. I've got 2 Arch-based OS's, and 2 Void based OS's, 2 Xfce desktops, 1 OpenBox/Tint, and 1 Spectrwm.

All of them great.

So KLA-OT2baseCE-1.8 really feels like a puppy.

You've got many of the puppy utilities in there, even pwidgets.

I started the xonclock twice and had 3 clocks on the desktop, I couldn't figure out how to switch them off, so I just killed them with the process manger.

I like the menu theme choices. I've basically been going all Gruvbox all the time, as it seems easiest on my eyes. But I'll probably change one day for no particular reason.

It will take me awhile to get the layout of the openbox tint setup.

My main problem now is deciding which OS to boot up everyday.

@geo_c
You know, I always find it difficult to answer myself this question which one is better and which one I can use on a regular basis. each of them is unique in its own way. A piece of the soul of a certain person is invested in each. Therefore, it is difficult for me to choose which one to prefer
I have them :
KLV-Airedale
KLA-OT2
Vanilla Dpup 9.2.x
Fossapup64_9.6 F96-CE_4
Slacko-8.2.1

New project KLA-OT2baseCE-1.9 on schedule.
New: Tint2 top panel,icons with the ability to change the color scheme of folders.both for light and dark themes.
