Some qualifying criteria would definitely help in pairing down this list. With a list this long, it is difficult and impractical to download the ISO and perform a test run for each and every distro. The values provided for the “RAM” and “Disk Space” columns are the preferred/recommended system requirement values (not the minimum system requirement values). Whenever possible, the most recent stable release of each distro was chosen. The distros which were recommended most commonly have been compiled into a list of contenders as shown below. Needless to say, the number of returned results was staggering. So, I began the online search and found many articles recommending copious distros which claim to check the boxes for the aforementioned requirements. It would have to be good enough to deploy as a daily-driver on my main machine. In the end, only 1 would be chosen as the lightweight Linux distribution of choice. As a Linux user, I was recently in search of a Linux distribution (distro) that is lightweight and runs efficiently on a virtual machine or a physical machine using minimal resources.
