MeX 64 bit Linux is based on Debian "Sid" and upcoming Ubuntu 26.04 LTS.
FEATURES
MeX uses the GNOME 50 Desktop, Kodi 21.1 and kernel 7.0.0-rc5-amd64-exton.
INSTALL TO HARD DRIVE/USB PEN DRIVE
MeX Linux can easily be installed to hard drive and/or to a USB pen drive.
RUNS IN RAM
Another big improvement is that MeX now can run from RAM. When the system has booted up you can enjoy a really fast system! You’ll need at least 6 GB RAM to run MeX that way. I.e. super fast!
UPGRADE
If you install MeX Linux to hard drive you will always get the latest package versions if you run the following commands: "sudo apt update" then "sudo apt upgrade".
INSTALL to hard drive
MeX uses Calamares Installer.
IMPORTANT about Refracta Snapshot
You can use the Refracta Snapshot (pre-installed in MeX) to create your own installable Ubuntu 26.04 Live System. I mean change everything and then create a whole new Ubuntu live system. Can also be done while running MeX live.
