'''StartOS 5.1''' is a bootleg [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Linux|Ubuntu 1412.04 LTS]] edition, which was created by [[:Category:Bootlegs created by YLMF|YLMF]]. It released on January 17, 2013, and was added to the archive on February 14, 2022.
 
== Description ==
The bootleg is a modified Ubuntu 1412.04 LTS ISO. This is the second release under the "StartOS" brand, as the first release to have the branding was 5.0, which is not in the archive. Just about everything you can think of has been completely redesigned as part of the rebranding to have a completely new look, straying as far away from the original purpose of "YLMF OS" as possible, which was to look like Windows XP to ease users into Linux.
 
The OS has been updated with a brand spankin' new desktop environment, called YMenu 5.0 ''(as of this release)'', which is completely unique to this OS and only this OS, and is clearly NOT just a rebranded version of GNOME 2.32.1. No really! It's not GNOME at all!!! It also comes with its own app store (called the Software Center), which seems to be custom-written for the most part, along with its own tutorial (although in HTML format).
It comes with an updated boot selector, where you can access DiskGenius 4.0.1 in DOS.
 
== Changes from Ubuntu 1412.04 LTS ==
* New boot selector
* New setup graphics
