   Is there still a stripped down distribution, based on debian, which keeps   
   the kernel and security packages updated while remaining a version behind,   
   or while stripping the bells and whistles?   
      
   A few weeks back I tried upgrading an old Pentium-3 800 machine that I use   
   as a server from debian 9 to 10 "Buster." I had to downgrade it back due   
   to issues with it grinding the system to a halt, and that is without even   
   installing an x-server. :)   
      
   I was hoping there might still be some debian-based "lighter weight"   
   distros out there. The ones I remember from a few years back have ceased   
   being maintained.   
      
   Thanks!
