UrsaOS v0.1.0-alpha.2

This development preview replaces alpha.1 for new installations.

Fixed

  • Fresh installations now create a persistent Pacman keyring instead of retaining the temporary live keyring. This prevents unknown trust failures during official Arch package transactions.
  • ursaos-installer now declares Python as a direct runtime dependency.
  • ISO builds rebuild stale UrsaOS packages and reject a Calamares binary with unresolved runtime libraries before creating an image.

Validation

  • The release ISO boots through both UEFI GRUB and BIOS Syslinux.
  • The BIOS/MBR installation path completed installation, reboot, tuigreet login and the branded Niri+DMS desktop during development testing.
  • The installed BIOS target completed sudo pacman -Syu successfully.

Known limitations

  • This remains an early development preview and is not intended for production use.
  • Timeshift and no-snapshot installations have less end-to-end coverage than the default Btrfs + Snapper path.
  • Hardware coverage is still limited.

Verify the ISO with the accompanying .sha256 file before use.
