Arch Based KIRO Linux Installer

 It ruined my GRUB.

Only Boot Arch and System BIOS setting which is dangerous.

With all the applications it took only 11.5GB out of 25.5GB.

I got Cutefish, too. I love Cutefish desktop which is much better than Cosmos.

XFCE and dark theme.

It is X11 and NUC cannot handle Wayland.

Gnome just installed is beautiful.

No Synaptic Package Manager and it is ARCH based repository.

It has Google Visual Code Installed.

If not for Gnome layout I would have missed it.

Additionally Software Flatpak is available.

Got AbiWord and it did not have LibreOffice.

Thank YOU.

Overall a good distribution and I know the internals of ARCH and thankfully it is graphic capable at boot time.

Arch Based KIRO Linux Installer

I decide to install KIRO Linux on top of one of my heavy Gnome Desktops, simply becuase it include, both Brave and Vivaldi Browesers, which I have to download Debian Packges and install using GDebi.

That is s pretty long route.

Imge is 5.3GB.

Installer is Calamara.

WiFi configuration smooth.

Software or Add and remove is Flatpak.

Ovver 51,000 files.

It needed FAT16 and I had FAT32 which I did not chage for EFI

Installtion is pretty fast.

It is all done.

I hope it keep my GRUB fie intact.

It did not.

I want to Instal Cosmic desktop later, if evrything went OK.

Only down side is it boots slowly due to graphic intensive
