Welcome
Hi! This is my website where I share news about my work on Kanotix, HowTos, ideas and new developments, and - probably most important - unofficial test images where you can try the latest features and updates for yourself. If you are looking for official Kanotix releases and infos check out the Kanotix website and Kanotix at Distrowatch. For support try the Kanotix Forum or IRC on irc.freenode.net, Channel #kanotix (my nickname: acritox)
Have fun with Kanotix!
