Team Peppermint is proud to release its second offering: Peppermint Ice. This is not an upgrade to replace Peppermint OS One, but another project that we will be under constant development from here forward. Peppermint Ice was developed around Chromium as its default browser and a brand new SSB [Site Specific Browser] Application was developed by Kendall Weaver named “Ice” which this new Peppermint variant is named after.
Peppermint Ice Specs
ISO Size:
416 MB
System Requirements:
* i386 or derivative processor (AMD64 and x86_64 are fine as well)

Congratulations on a great Distro.
Best distro I’ve ever used on my IBM T30 thinkpad
– Speed of Puppy Linux
– Out-of-the box functionality of Mint
combined with
– Maturity, ease-of-use and software availability of Ubuntu
I just donated $10 urge all other Peppermint fans to join

Thanks for both Peppermint OS and Peppermint Ice. They are now my default installs on older hardware. I have installed them on a number of friends’ and family’s PCs.
