ZelixOS Aurora 1.0.0 Released

After extensive testing and refinement, ZelixOS Aurora 1.0.0 is now available. Based on Arch Linux, this release focuses on a consistent, minimal desktop experience, updated Zelix tools, and a lightweight system that leaves software choices to you.

Highlights

Desktop and appearance

  • Monochrome KDE Plasma: Dark styling and bright accents have been refined for more consistent contrast across panels and widgets.
  • Streamlined desktop: Default launchers have been reviewed to create a more focused workspace.
  • Zelix Extras: 90 wallpapers are available to choose from in desktop settings.
  • Updated themes: ZelixOS styling carries through the GRUB boot menu, Plymouth startup screen, and SDDM login screen.

ZelixOS tools

  • Zelix Installer 1.1.6: English is now the default language; Turkish remains available. Password confirmation, username validation, button contrast, and post-install tasks have been improved.
  • Zelix Updater 1.0.4: A lightweight graphical tool for managing system updates and synchronizing pacman repositories.
  • Zelix CLI: Adds English localization and the zelix lang [en|tr] language-switching command.
  • Fastfetch: A minimal system information summary is preconfigured for the terminal.

A clean start, your choice

ZelixOS avoids bundling unnecessary default applications. Use Zelix Hello to choose and install the applications and tools you need, and shape the system around your workflow.

Installation requirements

  • Architecture: x86_64 (64-bit)
  • Boot mode: UEFI recommended; Secure Boot should be disabled.
  • Internet: Required during installation to download and verify packages.
  • Memory: 2 GB minimum; 4 GB or more recommended.
  • Storage: At least 20 GB of free space.

Important: Back up important files before writing the ISO to a USB drive, and make sure you select the correct device.

Verify your download

From the directory containing the ISO, calculate its SHA-256 checksum:

sha256sum zelix*.iso

Compare the result with the checksum published for that exact release.
