An installer for open-source operating systems. See the wiki for goals, design spec, user flow, and details about each step.
You'll need the following dependencies:
Run meson build
to configure the build environment. Change to the build directory and run ninja test
to build and run automated tests.
meson build --prefix=/usr
cd build
ninja test
To install, use ninja install
, then execute with io.elementary.installer
. Note that listing drives and actually installing requires root.
sudo ninja install
io.elementary.installer
You can also use --test
mode for development to disable destructive behaviors like installing, restarting, and shutting down:
io.elementary.installer --test
For debug messages, set the G_MESSAGES_DEBUG
environment variable, e.g. to all
:
G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all io.elementary.installer
