The name Emmabuntüs is a portmanteau of Emmaüs and Ubuntu.

Features This Linux distribution can be installed, in its entirety, without an Internet connection as all of the required packages are included within the disk image. The disk image includes packages for multiple languages and also optional non-free codecs that the user can choose whether to install or not. Emmabuntüs says one gigabyte of RAM is required for the distribution's supported releases. An installation script automatically performs some installation steps (user name, password predefined). The script allows the client user to choose whether or not to install non-free software and whether or not to uninstall unused languages to save disk space.Developpez.com tuto post-install emmabuntus 3 19 January 2015 Emmabuntüs includes browser plug-ins for data privacy.
