About

Garuda Linux is an Arch Linux–based operating system designed to deliver a balance of performance, usability, and visual appeal while making the traditionally complex Arch ecosystem more accessible. It follows a rolling release model, meaning the system is continuously updated with the latest software instead of requiring major version upgrades. It emphasizes ease of use by providing a graphical installer and GUI tools for system management, allowing users to perform most tasks without relying heavily on the command line. Garuda uses the Btrfs file system by default, enabling automatic snapshots before system updates, which allows users to restore their system easily in case of issues. It includes performance-focused components such as the Linux-zen kernel and various scheduler options to improve responsiveness and system speed. It supports multiple desktop environments, with a heavily customized KDE Plasma interface as the default.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It installs? Maybe it's easy if you installed all of it, so that it automatically takes you to the GUI with the first boot. I did the minimal install OS on a DVD.

Cons

  • If you get the base OS version, you can't do squat. It's all locked down, even denying permissions to root. And support is very slim compared to Slackware. On Slackware's page, it has tons of basics and step by step instructions for doing things. It's fully operating, running dhclient to get an IP address, while you try that with Rocky, it says command not found, as it does on almost everything. Don't try Xorg -config because, guess what? Command not found. It's raring to go with Slackware, it all WORKS. And I know because I've been using it for more than 15 years. I suppose if you loaded All of Rocky it would work, the full install. But it's apparently ALL or NOTHING with Rocky Linux.
