Thanks to the work of pioneers from #postmarketos it is actually easy to install any Linux OS on some phones. Here is #gnomeos on a OnePlus 6 that was installed through USB using systemd-repart. A few tweaks here and there, but it is almost stock GNOME OS.

We have finally retired the old #gnomeos installer image, and replaced it with the new live image. So now you can actually test GNOME OS before you install it. Get it at

Typically Linux distros have a live system to run an installer that installs a second system. What if instead, we booted from the ISO into the installed system and saved it to disk in the background while already using the system. I call it prêt-à-booter image, and I have made a demo for GNOME OS.

Finally, I have managed to make an hybrid ISO live image of GNOME OS that uses the same UKI and /usr partition as the main image. That is without using dracut. So now we will be able to test GNOME OS on Boxes without going through the installation.
