Parsix GNU/Linux was a live-CD Linux distribution based on Debian. The Parsix project's goal was to provide a ready-to-use, easy-to-install, desktop and laptop-optimized operating system based on Debian's testing branch and the latest stable release of GNOME.[2] It was possible to install extra software packages from the project's own APT repositories.[3]

In 2017, the official website announced the shutdown of the project, and suggested users switch to Debian Stretch.[4]
