Deep Freeze Linux Overview
About Deep Freeze
Deep Freeze Linux provides a completely non-restrictive working environment where there is no
need to be concerned about system damage or corruption; a simple restart eradicates all changes and
ensures that the standard system configuration is available at all times. All changes to a machine are
temporary for that working session. The need for IT professionals to perform rebuilds, re-image, or
troubleshoot computers is eliminated, resulting in a reduction in IT expenditures and an increase in
computer uptime.
System Requirements
Deep Freeze Linux requires SLED (SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop) 10 with the ext2 or ext3 file system
running on IDE and SATA hard drives, and the KDE or GNOME desktop environments.
The minimum hardware requirement is 128 MB RAM, 20GB hard drive, and a 1.5 GHz processor.
Important Terminology
A Frozen partition is completely restored to its exact original configuration and contents upon each
restart of the machine.
A Thawed partition functions normally, as if Deep Freeze was not installed.
