"Chimera-Linux":TLDR
A place to find TL:DR installation crib-sheets!
Not much else to say. Download the iso. Create USB installation media. Boot and follow the instructions and utilise the copy/paste functionality to achieve a shiny new operating system! BUT read the documentation to supplement your knowledge beyond the, "Too Lazy, Didn't Read" philosophy to get a full understanding of how good "Chimera-Linux" really is. I have also posted a redshift.conf. for redshift to determine your location this file can be dropped into your home .config folder, or in a .config/redshift folder that would need to be created. *28SEP24. TODAY I HAVE CREATED A FOLDER THAT CONTAINS ALL REQUIRED INFORMATION TO BUILD VOIDLINUX ISO IMAGES WITH OTHER DESKTOP ENVIRONMENTS. I RECOMMEND THE DISCRETE CRIB-SHEET METHOD FOR THOSE WANTING 'X-86' IMAGES ONLY. THERE WILL BE NO ADDITIONAL THEMING CREATED, BUT I HAVE ADDED SOME ADDITIONAL APPLICATIONS TO THE STANDARD BUILD. ENJOY...! -
