Getting the ISO

Download

The ISO can be downloaded from our builds page page. Available build types:

garuda-nix-dr460nized-26.11-x86_64-linux.iso: these are built daily and point to our latest stable tag, which is only tagged if evaluation and a few other checks pass

Write the ISO to a USB drive:

sudo dd if=$name.iso of=/dev/$usb bs=4M status=progress oflag=sync

Replace $usb with your USB drive, and $name with the resulting ISO file. This destroys all data on the drive.

Once booted, continue with installing.

The flake can build an installer ISO for three editions:

Build from the dev shell:

nix develop -c buildiso mokka

Replace mokka with dr460nized or catppuccin to build another edition. Use buildiso all to build all three.

Append --run to boot the freshly built ISO in QEMU instead of just copying it:

nix develop -c buildiso mokka --run

The command copies the ISO to the current working directory.

Alternatively, build the ISO directly with Nix:

nix build .#internal.iso-mokka
nix build .#internal.iso-dr460nized
nix build .#internal.iso-catppuccin
