Expirion Linux

Expirion 5.12 Xfce & LXQt is based on Devuan 5 and Debian 12 it does not use systemd but instead uses RunIt. Some software that is included are LibreOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird , Audacity, Brasero, and VLC Media Player

Expirion 6.1 is based on Devuan 6.0 and Debian 13 it does not have systemd but uses SysVInit

All ISOs are 64Bit only (x64) and only boot on x64 machines

So what sets this apart from Devuan, not much really the Kernel for newer hardware support and LibreOffice has been updated, and some minor software & firmware changes, but that is about it and added some icons and themes - Basically I built this to suit my needs, hopefully it will satisfy yours as well

NOTE: you have to create your partitions manually - there is a guide in the Documentations folder under the Files tab
