I love Linux Lite, have used it for years and continue to use it for our family storage and Minecraft server. I came from DSL and Tiny Core Linux before finding Linux Lite 1.0.8 and was hooked.
My question is, for a light version of Linux, the ISO has doubled in size since the 1.0.8 release (700mb) I fell in love with.
What is the reason for the increase in ISO size? More drivers? More software? Bigger software packages?
I see that 5.0 is down to 1.3GB which is a welcome sight from the 4.6 release that was 1.5GB but is there any way you can get the ISO back under a GB? I thought the original premise of a Lite version was that it fit on a CD (700mb) and used light system applications and desktop environment?
