SSH1 can technically be used on virtually all distributions, yes. It is not, however, in wide use due to certain security vulnerabilities.
Some will, if you install Mono. By default, most Linux distributions do not include support for them, though.
Yes. Linux distributions that run on ARM processors can be run on a computer with a VIA 8505 processor.
This is a holding question for alternates dealing with long-obsolete Linux distributions, such as Red Hat Linux 9. Please do not split the alternates out. There is no reason to use these distributions; they no longer receive any security updates, may not run on modern hardware, and many modern Linux distributions are free.
There are many ways to categorize Linux distributions. You can categorize them by their size, whether they run on a LiveCD, whether they are provided gratis, their ancestry of other Linux distros, and the purpose the distro is meant to serve.
Sure it can, and its the default browser of ubuntu-linux
Here is a list of some Linux distributions that can be run from a USB Flash drive, and the approximate size drive you will need for each of them.Ubuntu / Kubuntu / Xubuntu - 2 GB or largergOS - 1 GB or largerDamn Small Linux - 64 MB or largerPuppy Linux - 128 MB or largerPendrivelinux - 1 GB or largerKnoppix - 1 GB or largerDreamlinux - 1 GB or larger (2 GB or larger for Persistent).
There's Ubuntu, Debian, Red Had, Fedora, Gentoo, Arch, Mint, SuSE, Slackware... A good way to find out is to look into Distro Watch. The web site more or less keeps a monitor on how popular a given Linux distribution is.
Debian, Ubuntu, and Yellow Dog will run on them. Yellow Dog probably has the best support for them.
There aren't any Linux distributions specifically for Chromebooks. Some distros that have a GUI similar to macOS are: elementary OS pearOS Zorin OS (only in Pro version) Ubuntu Budgie
My computers all run Ubuntu (various distributions), and Linux Mint, as their operating systems.
A live system lets the operating system run directly off removable media such as a CD or USB Stick. This is common practice for most Linux distributions installation media
Most Linux distributions including CD and USB do support wireless adapters. The problem is that not all adapters are supported.
