I recently needed to do some testing with older versions of Linux Mint (for this) and was somewhat surprised to find that there were no official archives for this popular Linux distribution.
Thankfully, the Wayback Machine has archived almost every official torrent file and ISO image. So instead of catching up on sleep, I compiled archive links for every release (excluding any alphas, betas, or release candidates, except for the 1.0 beta).
These links are provided for historical and research purposes only. Old versions are not maintained and do not receive bug or security fixes. Install a currently supported version for regular, normal use.
Download (and seed) with BitTorrent, if possible. Magnet links were generated from the corresponding torrent files with OpenTrackr added as an additional tracker where necessary. Editions without an official torrent have “magnet” and “torrent” in the Download column crossed out.
A few editions of 2.2 Bianca (miniKDE) and 3.0 Cassandra (KDE, miniKDE, XFCE) are still missing. I would be interested in getting copies of these ISO images and torrent/md5sum files.
All this would not be possible without the Internet Archive. If you find these links useful, please consider donating to this essential service. (I am not affliated with the Internet Archive, I’m just a fan.)
