Hey, guys! I will be doing another DTOS live stream tomorrow morning. I've put in a ton of work in the last few days on this project. I fixed a bunch of bugs, but I've also added some really cool new features. Hope to see you guys in the stream. Peace!

So I've put in a ton of work in the last couple of days on getting a new DTOS ready for the public. I will be streaming tomorrow afternoon and running through an installation of the latest ISO, but I know some of you guys are itching to test things out. So...I'm going ahead and publishing the latest ISO that I've built (dtos-2505..04.13-alpha). You can grab this ISO from SourceForge at sourceforge.net/projects/dtos/

WARNING: This is very early days so I'm calling this an "alpha" release. Do not install this on production hardware. This is meant for testing in VMs or on secondary hardware. I have gotten to a point where I am confident it should install correctly (hopefully) but there's still some rough edges that need to be polished.

To launch the installer, type "dtosinstall" into the prompt. Some default choices that are made for you...ZRAM is used for swap, GRUB is the bootloader, and LUKS encryption is enabled. I may provide choices on some of this later down the road, but right now...this is what you get. Also, you must use UEFI. Legacy BIOS is not supported. This shouldn't affect anyone on physical hardware (unless you have an absolutely ancient machine) but if you are install in a VM, make sure the VM has UEFI enabled.
