@psygreg psygreg released this 14 Jul 15:32

For those who want more stability and faster security patches than the standard psycachy kernel. Update cycle will follow upstream.

PsyCachy is a kernel with improved settings for compatibility and stability across Debian/Ubuntu Linux distributions derived from linux-cachyos. This is its pre-packaged version, that can be immediately installed and used without going through the hassle of compiling everything yourself like before.

Installation

  • Download all .deb packages
  • Open terminal in the same directory of the packages
  • sudo dpkg -i linux-image-psycachy-lts_6.12.38-1_amd64.deb linux-headers-psycachy-lts_6.12.38-1_amd64.deb linux-libc-dev_6.12.38-1_amd64.deb

If you wish to get all systemd configs from CachyOS as well - filtered for compatibility, of course - and didn't install it through LinuxToys (which does that automatically), you can do so running cachyconfs.sh.

Secure Boot

You can make the kernel compatible with Secure Boot by signing it using create-key.sh. Remember to store the password you set when the keypair is created carefully.

Differences to linux-cachyos

  • Doesn't include processor architecture-specific optimizations, as they bring too small gains to justify the time compiling them or the confusion caused to newcomers by multiple kernel versions on release - you can include those by building the kernel yourself running cachyos-deb.sh with -b option.
  • Doesn't include handheld console drivers, as there isn't much of a point on doing it for Debian/Ubuntu.
  • OS/-o2 optimization instead of -o3, which caused quite a few problems with Debian/Ubuntu packages.
