Also mx-16 is a systemd-free distro put together by former Mepis and AntiX people. Unfortuantely, both are based on Jessie and there's been no hint of a Stretch-based release. The reason I want the most current "stable" release is I choose everything -- hardware and software -- for a 5 to 7 year lifetime. For example, this system: I originally built it 10 years ago and even with the numerous upgrades since the newest part, a hard drive (original one still good), is still 3 or 4 years old. So, I need an OS that's going to have support for at least 5 years. And I don't like rolling releases -- too many potential problems. Thanks anyway for your recommendation.
