What is Window Maker Live?

Window Maker Live (wmlive) is an installable Linux live CD/ISO, and is based mostly on the recently released "Bookworm" branch of Debian Linux. It relies on the extensively preconfigured Window Maker window manager as its default graphical user interface. It can also be considered as an alternative installation medium for Debian/Bookworm. As such, wmlive is fully compatible with the official Debian/Bookworm repositories for security updates and bug fixes.

Ready-made Window Maker Live CD ISO images for download

You can find the most recent ISO image releases for download at https://sourceforge.net/projects/wmlive/files/wmlive-bookworm_0.96.0.
These ISO images currently support 17 European languages most used worldwide.

As these ISO images are basically standard Live Debian installation media, they work just fine for installation to hard disk, and can therefore be used to bootstrap a new system.

The specific configuration customizations for Window Maker Live are available for download at https://sourceforge.net/projects/wmlive/files/wmlive-bookworm_0.96.0.
The current wmlive-bookworm-0.96.0.tar.xz archive contains the necessary material to build the Window Maker Live ISO images with the Debian Live Build system on your own.

The package assortment used is largely based on the current stable ("bookworm") branch of the Debian archive, with only a few selected packages recompiled by ourselves.
