Features
- !! HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL SOFTWARE !!
- Built on the Linux kernel.
- Uses a DOS-like environment.

- Runs Linux software (classic executables and AppImage applications).
- Uses an automatic drive letter mapping system (known from DOS and Windows) instead of complicated mountpoint system used in Linux.
- Uses Windows filesystems (NTFS/FAT32) for C: drive.
