Sterling writeup..will try this version on a old surface rt 32 bit ARM with 64 gb of storage running 8.1 and yikes..2gb of ram... I am considering also tiny core linux and puppy,,,my main concern is access to 3rd part software as the Micorosoft Store is useless..this edition linux you covered seems to fit my needs. I have an iso of win 10 ARM from archives site, but I'll pass and try this. Thank you!...
