What is XeroLinux
In short, it’s just an alternative to the Plasma Install Script script, making it easier to install Arch, bypassing the need for ArchInstall. The ISO includes my toolkit as well as my famous Xero Layan Rice rice all-in-one shot.
You can use the included Xero Toolkit, 1st icon with my logo in the Dock, to configure it, keeping in mind that some of the features were already applied to the ISO.
What it isn’t, is a distribution like Ubuntu or Mint that takes care of everything for you. While I’ve taken care of the main setup process and included the Toolkit, things like drivers and additional configuration, making it your own will be up to you. That’s the essence of ArchLinux, a Do-It-Yourself distro. If the appearance led you to believe otherwise, I apologize, as that wasn’t the intention.
Who is Distro for
It’s designed for those who appreciate the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) approach, with an easier way to install Arch and the KDE Desktop Environment, while also offering a way to support my work financially and get something in return. A big thanks to those who choose to contribute!
If you prefer not to, or can’t,it’s not an issue at all. You can always use the included ArchInstall in combination with my PlasmaInstall scripts to achieve a similar result.
It will be a bit more complex, but will never cost you anything and the code will forever be made available to fork and modify to your liking.
How To get ISO
In order to get it, please click the button below to get redirected to the Ko-Fi Store page where you will be able to donate however much you want starting from $6 onwards, and you will receive a confirmation e-mail, with a link to a special directory containing the ISO on Mega.nz with the Decryption key required to access it.
All I ask for, is for you not to share it with anyone. Otherwise you will be hurting the project making it harder for me to maintain. I am only one man doing all this for you, not a team. Thank you for being supportive.
Wrapping up
This project depends on you. The more support I get, the longer it will live for. I cannot, due to my situation, keep maintaining something like this for free, it costs money. Hosting, Internet, and so on. I hope you understand.
We highly recommend the use of Ventoy to boot, so you have Grub as fallback in case SystemD-Boot fails. If you burn using Etcher or similar tools there will be nothing to fall back to. Just an FYI.
With that, I sure hope you enjoy it, and let me know how it goes. For support feel free to join my personal and free Discord Server. I will do my best to help.
