It is a Light Weight Arched based distribution.
I have a copy installed in my NUC.
It has extensive instructions in text at each stage of the installation.
This is something ELive Linux should emulate. Instead giving only vocal commands with unintelligible English, it should post written instructions.
It taught me how to configure mirrors and then after installation to UPDATE.
Today, was a different story.
I installed Endevour OS after long time.
But it would not mount after installation of CachyOS as a parallel system.
Since, it was not booting I decided to install STORM on top of it. It was in a small partition of 25GB.
I usually, format the partition before new installation and won't let the distribution to do it. That was a fortunate oversight.
STORM OS wanted me to reformat the EFI which I could not with 9 other distributions already in the Laptop.
Instead, I flagged it with boot and make an entry as /boot/efi. That option was not available without clicking format option.
This figure of 8 boot virus happily insert itself at any available space.
It even gets itself in front of the MB or GB allocation. With my poor eyesight I may have missed a single digit of 8 in the /root allocation. This is the reason STORM OS may have failed to install. INSTALLER script may have seen the endless loop of no time limit and would have inserted the usual 1 minute 30 second routine scan of my system at boot time.
In fact, reverting back default.
Presto!
Endeavour OS booting OK.
I rebooted Endeavour 3 times for the Boot Loader to register the time sequence.
What a coincidence?
This has never happened before.
I was lucky.
