By the way, Michael, I believe that AntiX is based on MX Linux. I forget the
exact relationship, but that's how I discovered the MX repositories.
Since you are so enthusiastic about MX Linux with TDE, I wondered if you knew
anything about AntiX, or were more up-to-date on its status, or had an
opinion about it
I was quite impressed by it; it just didn't suit my needs.

Well, I was
really looking to use one of the ready-made Trinity ISOs.
I don't want this windoze user to have a bad experience.
Hi Leslie,
I’m going to suggest you’re going about this from the wrong way. ‘cause?
In my opinion your requirements are at odds with each other.
Your Requirements:
- You want him to have an easy-to-use experience.
- You want a Live USB that already includes TDE.
TDE is only going to pre-exist on a Live USB if placed there by someone who
is near developer level. A near developer level person is not
(intentionally) going to use a distribution that has an easy-to-use
experience as they are generally more interested in doing it their own way
(ability to highly customize).
Based upon your replies, I can only suggest at this point that you build
the 3 Live USBs offered so far yourself, test them to see if they are
deemed adequate by you for your brother, and then give the result to your
brother.
The MX Linux forums are here:
https://forum.mxlinux.org/index.php
They will be happy to help you add the TDE auto-installer I built for MX to
their Live USB.
Best Regards,
Michael
