Boykisser Linux v2.10.26.4 :3

Debian 13 (trixie) · amd64 · UEFI + legacy BIOS.

Changelog

Boykisser Linux 2 is a rewrite of most of the system. Here's what changed since the last release:

  • New :3 logo on the boot menu, splash screen, installer, login screen and desktop
  • Six new wallpapers, drawn from code in the repo instead of found online
  • KDE Plasma as an install option, themed the same way as XFCE
  • Optional app bundles in the installer: gaming, streaming, development and office
  • contrib and non-free are enabled, so Steam and the NVIDIA driver install without extra setup
  • The Boykisser tools now ship as Debian packages and boykisser update keeps them current
  • Fixed: picking KDE or app bundles in the installer did nothing, and the live account ended up on installs
  • Fixed: the boot menu art covered the BIOS menu, and Qt apps ignored the theme
  • The live session login is now live / live, so user is free as a username
  • New website and docs at boykisser.taymaerz.de
  • New version numbers: vMAJOR.MONTH.YY.N, starting at v2.10.26.4
Installation Instructions & Mirror Links

Three flavours below - grab the full ISO for an offline daily driver, the netinstall ISO for a tiny download that pulls apps on first boot, or the lite ISO if your laptop is old enough to remember Vista.

Full ISO - everything offline (~2.6G)

The complete daily driver: every app is already in the image, installs and runs fully offline.

Parts: download all .part* files + SHA256SUMS, then cat boykisser-linux-amd64.iso.part* > boykisser-linux-amd64.iso && sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS. Full guide: boykisser.taymaerz.de/docs.html#downloading

Netinstall ISO - slim, needs internet on first boot (~1.5G)

A much smaller image with just the base desktop, browser and store. The installed system downloads the rest (OBS, VLC, codecs, Steam, VS Code, gaming bits + Flatpaks) on first boot, so it needs an internet connection to finish setup.

Lite ISO - for ancient BIOS laptops (~1.5G)

Same slim package set as netinstall, but built BIOS-only (syslinux, no grub-efi) with nomodeset in the default boot line. Made for pre-2010 hardware where the full/netinstall ISOs dump you at a grub> rescue prompt. dd it to a USB, boot it, done - no Ventoy, no chainloading.
