2 raised to the power 7 or 200 or 80 or 1000000, call it what you will but TuxJam is now officially in 8 bit territory. Once recovered from nerding out over this fact, your hosts, Kevie, Al, Andrew and Dave start the show as usual by taking in a selection of recently released distros from distrowatch.

Next Kevie and Andrew relate their experiences of using DietPi which offers a slimmed down and highly customisable OS for a variety of single board computers including all Raspberry Pi models.

Dave and Al then relate their experience with FoxClone which is an image backup solution written in Pascal that offers a neat FrontEnd for partclone.

We then talk about feedback (we love feedback!) and upcoming things such as PodCrawl on 21st Feb, HPR Beer Garden, Oggcamp 2026 and how you can get in touch with us (did I mention how much we love feedback?).

Tunes licensed under lovely Creative Commons type licenses played in this episode were:

1. Haydn Davies – Run Baby Run
2. Bod – New Beginning
3. Igor Pumphonia – New Me
4. Richard Shekari – A Fresh Start
