v1.2.9-beta

Removed XFCE to simplify installation(now done through openbox) and cut down on attack surface and ISO size. Element needs to be built from source or we might have to switch matrix clients because the desktop version has become unusable.(their team is mean except for one person)

New installation instructions
After booting up the ISO, select Openbox Session(The LainOS Installer only works in Openbox),

Then enter 'liveuser' with no password into the login prompt to enter the Openbox live installation environment, and connect to the internet. if you are not connected to internet it will show an error message. Ignore this, or connect and restart the LainOS Installer if it bothers you, just make sure you are connected before installing.

The system is nice to use now and daily driveable.

Post installation:

(this will all be automated in the installer in future versions.)

use sudo pacman -Sy to update package databases, followed by sudo pacman -Syu to update the system

use chsh -s $(which zsh) to get the custom shell prompt theme,(reboot for changes to take effect)

and use nano open LazyVim, then Shift+U to update LazyVim once you are in ZSH

To get the LazyVim dashboard plugin custom rainbow ASCII art, execute the following command:

chmod 755 /home/USERNAME/.config/LazyVim/lua/plugins/script.sh

To start your firewall use sudo systemctl start ufw

To have your firewall on each boot, use sudo systemctl enable ufw

Thank You!

The LainOS Team
