# NunOS: A soothing Linux distribution
2025-01-03 17:45:52 +00:00
Note: still very much a work in progress!
## Plan
2025-01-03 17:45:52 +00:00
- [x] Decide on base distro: debian
- Good governance model
- I trust it, I like it
- I dislike systemd, but Gentoo, OpenBSD, Devuan, etc. seem too niche
2025-01-03 17:45:52 +00:00
- [x] Decide on desktop environment: xfce.
- [ ] Describe how to install debian step by step
- [ ] Describe how to install the recommended software step by step.
- With .md.sh scripts
- Why imperatively? Because nixos has a much higher setup cost for me.
- [ ] Recommended hardware
2025-01-03 17:45:52 +00:00
- [ ] Potentially build on top of this to SentinelOS
- [ ] Install way more software
Previously done for GNOME
- [x] Figure out how to specify shortcuts in the command line: gsettings, or dconf-editor
## About
### Why a "distribution"
- Not a proper distribution
- A bit more effort than your typical set of dotfiles
- Consider it more like a walkthrough
- But the name "nunOS" (I'm Nuño Sempere) was too good to pass up
- The next step might be to: make this a [Debian derivative](https://www.debian.org/derivatives/)? But not close to it

userland distribution
### Debian installer instructions
Partition > Guided - use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM.
## How to get this distribution
```
2023-11-14 22:48:51 +00:00
wget https://git.nunosempere.com/open.source/nunOS/raw/branch/master/1-bootstrap.sh
source bootstrap.sh
```

## Notes to self
- Doing this step by step and testing in between is too annoying. Better to imperatively define it and then test it at the end.
