LFA (Linux For All) 64bit Live System – Build 260420 – with Budgie DE 10.10, kernel 7.0.0-amd64-lfa and Refracta Snapshot :: Create your own LFA/Ubuntu installable 26.04 LTS system!

Leave a comment

Linux For All (LFA) Build 260420 with the Budgie 10.10 Desktop Environment is a simple remaster of upcoming Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon. It’s a total rebuild. I.e. nothing is left of the old LFA system. NOTE: Ubuntu 26.04 will be supported until April 2031.

NEWS ABOUT LFA Build 260420
1. All packages the ordinary Linux user can wish for are pre-installed. Study the full packages list…
2. Kernel 7.0.0-amd64-lfa is used. You can of course switch to Ubuntu’s original kernel if you prefer that.
3. The Desktop environment is Budgie 10.10. (Budgie is a desktop environment, formerly a project within Solus, becoming independent under the newly formed Buddies of Budgie organization in January 2022. It uses GTK for widgets, and is written in C and Vala. As of Budgie 10,10, the only available session is on Wayland).
4. The main Web Browser is Firefox. So you can watch Netflix!
5. I have included Refracta tools (Refracta Snapshot) to make it possible for you to create your own installable LFA/Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Live System once you have installed LFA to hard drive.
6. You can run LFA super fast in RAM. Use boot alternative 2 Load to RAM – see below.
7. I have removed snapd altogether. With snapd the ISO file will be way too big.

What’s new in kernel 7.0?

ExTiX 26.4 with GNOME 50 Desktop together with Waydroid (“Waydroid lets you launch a complete Android system on Linux with Google Play”) :: Build 260410

Leave a comment

ABOUT ExTiX 26.4 – Build 260410/260407
I have made a new version of ExTiX – The Ultimate Linux System. I call it ExTiX 26.4 GNOME Waydroid Live System. I have made it possible for you to configure Waydroid in ExTiX. (Waydroid lets you launch a complete Android system on Linux with Google Play Services so you can install your favorite apps). So now you can run Android apps in ExTiX. GAPPS (Google Play Services and Google Play) are however NOT pre-installed in ExTiX 26.4. That’s because you’ll have to install/initialize GAPPS using your own Gmail account. I.e. to be able to run Google Play. The second best thing with ExTiX 26.4 is that while running the system live (from DVD/USB) or from hard drive you can use Refracta Snapshot (pre-installed) to create your own live installable Ubuntu/Waydroid system. So easy that a ten year child can do it!

NEWS ABOUT THE KERNEL 260410
I finally managed to add the kernel module binder_linux to “my” kernel 7.0.0-rc6-amd64-exton. Said module is needed for Waydroid to run. I have therefore uploaded a new version of ExTiX 26.4 today with only ONE kernel included. I have also corrected some faults in the Calamares Installer. Normally you should now see this when the hard drive installation is ready – screenshot.

ExTiX 26.4 GNOME 50 System 64 bit is based on Debian and upcoming Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon. I have installed GNOME 50 Tokyo as DE.
NOTE about Ubuntu 26.04 LTS: It will be released in a stable version 260423 and supported until April, 2031.

The system language is ENGLISH.

Used KERNELS
Ubuntu’s latest original kernel 7.0.0-10-generic with the binder kernel module (needed by Waydroid) and my own compiled kernel 7.0.0-rc6-amd64-exton. While running ExTiX live “my” kernel will be used. To be able to run Waydroid you’ll have to use (boot with) kernel 7.0.0-10-generic. That is in Build 260407 and 260409. In Build 260410 only “my” kernel 7.0.0-rc6-amd64-exton is used.

SCREENSHOTS

2. The GNOME Desktop for root
3. ExTiX 26.4 running in Qemu (the best way to run any Linux System virtually)
