When it comes to **Encryption**, I haven't tested it thoroughly. Use at your own Risk! **Calamares** is meh when it comes to that. All I know is it's extremely limited. It can't ecrypt both `boot` n `root`, just one or the other. Am sorry I test what I can. Please report any findings to me on [**Discord**](https://discord.gg/HPkEc38AcB){:target="_blank"}.
When it comes to **Encryption**, **Calamares** is meh when it comes to that. It's extremely limited. It can't ecrypt both `boot` n `root`, just the latter (I think). I do not use it myself so my knowledge there is extremely limited. **Use at your own RISK**.

Before we dive in, it's important to note that **XeroLinux** features **KDE Plasma**, a powerful and feature-rich desktop environment. While it’s designed to run on a variety of systems, for the best experience, we recommend mid-range or higher hardware. That said, it can work on low-end hardware, but performance may be less than optimal. Check the requirements below for more details!

*Minimum*

- 4GB RAM (DDR3+)
- 16GB HDD/SSD Storage
- Modern iGPU (512MB vRAM)

**Bootable Tool**

To boot into the Distro's Live Environment, all you have to do is use the tried and true [**Ventoy**](https://xerolinux.xyz/posts/ventoy-multi-boot/){:target="_blank"} to put ISO on & boot, that way you have **Grub** as fallback in case **SystemD-Boot** fails. If you burn using **Etcher** or similar tools there will be nothing to fall back to. Just an FYI.

**Calamares Installer**

[**Calamares**](https://github.com/calamares/calamares){:target="_blank"} will auto-launch on boot. Just go through the motions and when you get to the user creation page, if you select the *Autologin* option, you will be logged in to an **X11/Xorg** session, not **Wayland**, we chose that for compatibility with legacy hardware nothing more.

You can still switch to *Wayland* post-install, just use the toolkit, it's under option **System Troubleshooting & Tweaks >> Change Autologin Session X11/Wayland (SDDM)** and select *Wayland*, reboot, done.
You can still switch to *Wayland* post-install either via KDE's **SDDM** settings or the included toolkit, choice is yours. I recommend toolkit as system settings tend to be buggy.

## Support/Issues

We have had no choice but to disable the **Swap+/-Hibernate** options due to an ongoing issue with latest version of **Calamares**. Will be re-added at some point in the future. Until then you can still use **Swap File** only if you have *8GB* or less RAM otherwise it would be a waste of space.

If you encounter any *other* issues or have questions directly related to the installation, feel free to reach out to me on **Fosstodon** or **Discord**. All relevant links are provided in the footer, and I'll do my best to assist you.

<p>Before we begin, I would like to tell everyone of you who has supported the <strong>XeroLinux</strong> project by either getting the ISO or some merch, how much your simple act of kindness means to me. I cannot put it into words. So all am gonna say is God bless you all. I hope your kindness is reciprocated. 🙏❤️</p>

<p><strong>GUI Package Managers</strong></p>
<p>Additionally, I'd like to point out that no <em>GUI package managers</em> are included by default, as I believe in giving you the freedom to choose the one that suits your workflow best. Through the provided toolkit, you can select from <strong>Octopi</strong>, <strong>PacSeekTUI</strong>, or <strong>Bauh</strong>. That said, I strongly advise against installing KDE's <strong>Discover</strong> if you're aiming for stability; it's notoriously troublesome. But, as always, the final decision is yours.</p>
