The recommendations here - consist of both FSF-endorsed and non-FSF-endorsed distros. Some of these - distributions wrongly call the whole system <em>Linux</em>. Despite libreboot's - <a href="../../gnu/">stance against the GNU project</a>, we still agree - with the free software philosophy and we still want you to call the - whole system <em>GNU+Linux</em>, since this is the technically correct - name for the system. - </p> - <h2>FSF-endorsed distros</h2> - <p> - Many FSF-endorsed GNU+Linux distributions are considered unfit - for general use by the libreboot project. - You can read about their problems here:<br/> - <a href="../fsf-distros/">Why we can't endorse many FSF-endorsed distributions</a>. - </p> - <p> - <a href="../gnulinux/grub_boot_installer.html">How to install GNU+Linux on a libreboot system</a> - </p> - <p> - <a href="../">Back to main index</a> - </p> - </div> - - <div class="section"> - - <h2>Debian</h2> - <p> - Most of the developers use it (Leah Rowe always uses testing - releases of Debian). We recommend Debian stable releases for - most users. If you want to do development, e.g. libreboot - development, then you should use the testing release of Debian. - </p> - <p> - Debian by default comes without non-free software in the default - installation or repos. There is a non-free repo that's not added - by default. Just avoid adding this, and you should have a fully - free system. - </p> - <p> - <a href="https://www.debian.org/">Visit the Debian website</a> - </p> - <p> - We recommend using the <em>MATE</em> desktop. - </p> - <h2>Devuan</h2> - <p> - Devuan is a fork of Debian that does not use the controversial - <em>systemd</em> init system. - </p> - <p> - See: <a href="https://www.devuan.org/os/init-freedom/">https://www.devuan.org/os/init-freedom/</a>. - </p> - <p> - <a href="https://www.devuan.org/">Visit the Devuan website</a> - </p> - <p> - We recommend using the <em>MATE</em> desktop. - </p> - <h2>Qubes</h2> - <p> - Security-focussed distribution. It makes heavy use of IOMMU and - hardware virtualization to separate running - applications, along with other security features. Provides - a full hypervisor for running applications. - </p> - <p> - Also heavily in favour of adoption of both Libreboot and Coreboot. - </p> - <p> - <strong> - Of all available Libreboot systems, Qubes is currently only known - to be compatible with the ASUS KGPE-D16 and KCMA-D8, due to the - hardware virtualization requirement (and even on those boards, - only certain CPUs have fully functional virtualization in - Libreboot). - </strong> - </p> - <p> - <a href="https://www.qubes-os.org/">Visit the Qubes website</a> - </p> - <h2>Dragora</h2> - <p> - Fully free distribution, with a focus on simple package management - and configuration. Experienced users might like this distro. It also - has native support for multiple languages. - </p> - <p> - <a href="https://dragora.org/">Visit the Dragora website</a> - </p> - <h2>Parabola</h2> - <p> - Fully free bleeding edge distribution, based on the <em>Arch</em> distribution. - Good for saavy users and developers in general (some libreboot developers - use this). - </p> - <p> - Arch users, refer to the <a href="https://wiki.parabola.nu/Migration_from_the_GNU+Linux_distribution_of_Arch">Parabola migration guide</a>. - </p> - <p> - <a href="https://www.parabola.nu/">Visit the Parabola website</a> - </p> - <p> - We recommend using the <em>MATE</em> desktop. - </p> - - </div> - - <div class="section"> - - <p> - Copyright © 2016 Leah Rowe <info@minifree.org><br/> - Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document - under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International license - or any later version published by Creative Commons; - - A copy of the license can be found at <a href="../cc-by-sa-4.0.txt">../cc-by-sa-4.0.txt</a> - </p> - - <p> - Updated versions of the license (when available) can be found at - <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode</a> - </p> - - <p> - UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE - EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS - AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF - ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS, - IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER.
