🚀 Gamma Linux v2.7
🚀 Gamma Linux 2.7 — Warden
No PC deserves to die.
Gamma Linux 2.7, codenamed Warden, is a major step forward in Gamma Linux's mission to revive old hardware while providing a fast, lightweight and practical desktop experience.
The main goal of Warden is simple:
Boot Gamma. Try Gamma. Install Gamma.
✨ What's New
💿 Live + Installation
Gamma Linux 2.7 keeps the full Live Mode experience while introducing a standard graphical installation path powered by Calamares.
You can now:
- Boot Gamma without modifying your disk
- Test the system before installation
- Launch the installer directly from the Live environment
- Choose an installation target
- Configure users, keyboard and locale
- Install the bootloader
- Reboot directly into the installed system
Boot → Try → Install → Reboot → Gamma Linux
⚡ Pre-Tuned ZRAM
Warden introduces pre-tuned ZRAM configuration directly into the system.
Gamma prepares memory compression as part of the installation instead of requiring users to configure it manually.
Each edition is tuned for its target hardware:
- Pro — balanced performance and memory behavior
- Lite — stronger memory optimization for low-resource systems
- Legacy — compatibility-oriented tuning for older hardware
🔥 Improved Boot Compatibility
Gamma Linux 2.7 improves its hybrid boot architecture with support for:
- BIOS / Legacy boot
- UEFI x86_64
- UEFI IA32 where supported
- GRUB EFI boot
- ISOLINUX BIOS boot
- Hybrid ISO layouts
- Safe Graphics Mode
The ISO build system also performs additional validation before producing the final image.

- Older Pentium machines
- Core 2 Duo systems

🎨 Gamma Identity
Warden continues building the Gamma Linux identity while intentionally keeping Enlightenment as the desktop environment.
This release focuses on customization that can be introduced without replacing the existing desktop foundation:
- Gamma branding
- LightDM integration
- Gamma first-boot configuration
- Gamma-specific system configuration
- Gamma installation branding
- Cleaner Live defaults
Enlightenment remains intentionally familiar in 2.7.
Deeper desktop-shell customization is reserved for future releases.
🧰 Gamma Control Center
Gamma Linux 2.7 continues development of the Gamma Control Center (Gamma CC).
The Control Center is being built as the central place for Gamma-specific system management.
The current release focuses on establishing its foundation, while deeper controls and UI integration will continue in future releases.
📦 Software
Gamma Linux 2.7 ships with the software required for its desktop experience, installation environment, networking, system management and everyday use.

Note: The dedicated Gamma Software Archive is still under development and is not part of this release yet.
🚧 Coming Later
Some Gamma components are intentionally not included in Warden yet.
The project is continuing development of:
- Gamma Software Archive
- Deeper Gamma Control Center integration
- More Gamma-specific desktop customization
- Additional installer customization
- Further hardware compatibility improvements

These features will arrive in future releases once they are ready.
