  • This is a huge advance for the Arch World - LinuxHubPrime, at YouTube well-known as @linuxhub70, made lot's of effort to build a new installer for the distro, that comes also with self-programmed, very well curated tools. The distribution itself is absolutely beautiful, has plenty options of GUIs, starting with the well-known ones like KDE, the very popular CINNAMON Desktop, too, GNOME, but he also supports many of the new window managers (and the longer grown ones, too). I think nearby nowhere one can find that many options of GUIs. It seems to be the most customizable distro on the market right at the moment (End of May 2026). The installation process is very easy (I used a ventoy stick for bare metal installations and the *.iso files for installing virtual machines with QEMU-KVM and virt-manager and/or GNOME Boxes. I never had any problems during the short installation process - as long as an internet connection is established. The *.iso files are coming with a live mode, where you can try the distro before installing it - user name: live password: live - so you can check first what you install later. The distribution is very well maintained, stands very, very actual (he often releases a new *.iso ONCE A WEEK!) and is absolutely stable on my devices and VM's. On my sites, it runs absolutely comparable to other, larger developer teamt's distros like the also Arch-based CachyOS (where I rub especially the server kernel!) - or even the "stability king" Debian 13. But in comparison to Debian 13, it is equipped with the most actual software packages, you get the AUR Helpers. Pacman, Pamac, Paru and Yay... Nothing to add. You can find many helpful videos of the installation process itself and presentations of the distribution at @linuxhub70's YouTube - Channel I am very happy about his project, because it makes it very easy for NEW LINUX USER to get an easy access to the Arch World and to the plenty of GUIs that has been developed during the time - newest ones like the "grown one", too. The very best: It is OpenSource, so free to every user customers like companies. This is a strong recommendation to try this distro - and to support @linuxhub70, who is financed solely through donations and voluntary member sponsorship on YouTube. So please support him - it is well-spent. Also I need to underline that I always got a quick answer during 12-24h when I have had any questions after getting in touch with him through the YouTube comments. This support is extraordinary and absolutely rare.

    Thank You kindly sir!
  • I installed this OS on an EFI only system no Legacy option. Works great out of the box and after some customizing feels familiar.
