Most are built on top of 4 major “base” distributions, Debian, Red Hat, Fedora and Arch. When speaking of distributions, the meaning is Linux distributions of which there are many. I need HELP and am not ashamed to admit I need it.Īs a fellow dummy, perhaps I can help a bit.
I have a laptop and a 1tb ssd drive that I can dedicate to learning Linux. Here is a good example of what I mean – “The Calamares installation utility found in numerous other distributions” – distributions of what? Calamares installation utility for what? How about Linux for morons? Linux for idiots? Yes, I need my hand held to the point where at least I have an understanding of what the words refer to.

I get snarky responses about being a Windows fool or am directed to even more sites that assume you already know the lingo. In the past when I have asked what I think is this simple request. Is there anyplace anywhere, internet, book, whatever that does not assume you already know Linux in order to even begin to understand the steps one needs to take to try it out. However regardless of where I have gone on the internet to find out about Linux, every last place assumes you already know the lingo and slang and in-words thus preventing me from understanding what the hell is being said. Have you used EndeavourOS? What did you think of it? Let us know in the comments!
But, with that said, Manjaro and other systems are absolutely awesome too, and have some perks that EndeavourOS does not but I'll save that for the Manjaro review coming in the near future. I used to use Manjaro a lot, but EndeavourOS took my #1 spot when it came to Arch based systems. Frankly, I have used EndeavourOS multiple times in the past, and I always come back to it unless I need an Ubuntu system or something else for some specific reason. If you love Arch, and you want Arch with a nice graphical installer, easy desktop environment choosing and installation, minimal bloat, and a great and friendly community, give EndeavourOS a try I highly doubt you will be disappointed.
It's no secret to anyone who has read my distro reviews in the past that I love Arch and Arch based systems.and EndeavourOS is no exception. With four browser tabs open to various sites, LibreOffice Writer open and my three monitors going, I was bouncing between 0.9%-1.5% CPU and 2.3GB RAM used. Like, if it were possible for it to open applications before you even clicked them, I am certain that it would.KDE has become super lightweight in recent times, but also having a minimalistic system without a lot of bloat really makes a huge difference.

If you want a distribution that has a hundred different programs and utilities out-of-the-box, you're not going to like EndeavourOS, but for those of you who prefer a minimalistic system you can install only what you want on, this should be quite fine for most. I had to manually install an office suite for example, but it did come with VLC, Elisa music player, Dragon Player video player, XSane scanner utility, and a handful of default KDE utilities included.

Included Software and FeaturesĮndeavourOS is not quite as minimal as Arch Linux, but it’s definitely more minimal than many other distributions. It really doesn’t get much easier than this. The Calamares installation utility found in numerous other distributions is the one used here, and it makes installations such a breeze.It took less than five minutes to install, and there was not a single hiccup or issue. The EndeavourOS installation from a live-usb that I created was extremely simple.
#Endeavouros iso#
There are also community Editions available through the installer on the same ISO that support other desktop environments during installation, so unless you use some pretty obscure environment, good chance your favourite will be available.įor this installation and review I opted for KDE Plasma.
#Endeavouros Offline#
The offline installation comes with a customized Xfce desktop that actually looks really nice in my eyes, and is well organized and designed, or you can use the online installation option and choose your environment of choice during the installation process. There are some, yes, a few handy utilities or extra packages such as the amazingly awesome yay command line utility for package installation from both Arch repos and the AUR in an easy to use wrapper, but I would say that EndeavourOS installs 99% pure Arch Linux.ĮndeavourOS can be installed either offline or online from the same ISO. Rather than using separate repositories like Manjaro for example, EndeavourOS uses the Arch repos, and includes very few packages of their own. You can check out the review of #1, MX Linux, here.įor those unfamiliar with the distro, it’s about as close to vanilla Arch Linux as you can get, without installing Arch itself.
