I’ve replaced Yaourt with Yay – Yet Another Yogurt – An AUR Helper Written in Go. This version (220905) of ArchEX replaces version 220206. So altogether five (5) different Desktops environments to try out while running ArchEX live or from hard drive! Note that you can run ArchEX in full screen in VirtualBox directly from the ISO file since VirtualBox Guest Additions are pre-installed!

As “extra” Desktop environments I’ve added Gnome Classic and LXDE. So I thought why not install Deepin DE also in ArchEX? Furthermore I have added the GNOME 42 (latest) and LXQt 1.1.0-1 (latest) Desktop environments. I came to like Deepin DE very much when I installed it in ExTiX 22.6. Deepin DE (made in China!) is devoted to providing a beautiful, easy to use, safe and reliable system for global users. It has four advantages compared with ArchEX Build 220905.Ī new version of ArchEX is ready! In this new version, which I call ArchEX 2022, I have added the Deepin 20.7 (latest) Desktop Environment (DE). I’ve made a new extra “Mini” version of ArchEX. This version uses kernel 5.19.6 and has more support for various wireless cards. I therefore had to upload a new ArchEX version today (220905). Today I discovered that I had forgot to add “cowspace” ( sudo mount -o remount,size=2G /run/archiso/cowspace) in ArchEX Build 220901.

The video is called ArchEX Linux : Deepin Desktop with ARCH Linux! It is not made by me. ArchEX Mini installing LibreOffice while running live Study all installed packages in Build 220904…ģ. Kernel modules ath10k and wl are loaded also when running ArchEX live, which obviously means a lot. In Qemu you can just choose the screen resolution you want.ĭ) ArchEX Build 220904 uses kernel 5.19.6 (latest) and has support for more wireless cards. VirtualBox Guest Additions are pre-installed in ArchEX Build 220904 (and Build 220901). (Could be tricky).Ĭ) If you install Arch Linux (or ArchEX using Calamares) in VirtualBox or Qemu you can do it in full screen. When installing from Arch Linux official live DVD you’ll have to do it in console mode. You can have my instructions up in Firefox while installing as this screenshot shows.

NOTE: I was hoping to make the ISO file even smaller, but that was impossible since Calamares Installer has a lot of dependencies.ī) ArchEX Build 220904 has all Arch Linux original installation scripts, which means that you can use this build to install Arch Linux “the Arch way” following the Installation Guide. So your computer needs lesser RAM to run Build 220904. This is of importance since ArchEX can run very fast live from RAM. The ISO file is “only” of 1740 MB compered with Build 220901 which is of 4010 MB. It has four advantages compared with ArchEX Build 220901.Ī) This ArchEX build is smaller.
