Re: [sleuthkit-users] Digital Intelligence Ultra Blockers under Linux(Fedora?)

[farmer d. <far...@ya...>]

Hello Jessop,

If you budget allows, then hands-down SMART Linux
(www.asrdata2.com).  Everything has done for you. 
Forensically designed and optimized.  Slackware Linux
makes a great platform as it is very clean, lean, and
uses vanilla kernel from www.kernel.org.

I never recommend RH/FC for Data Forensics work.

regards,

farmerdude
