An experimental text based installer run from the command line to install AerynOS.
lichen has been developed to a minimum viable level to allow for installing AerynOS by experienced users. Prior to installation, users will need to format their disk with a GPT partition table with an esp partition, xbootldr partition and a root partition. Instructions for this can be found on our documentation website.
The AerynOS team are currently focusing on infrastructure and os-tooling development so lichen is currently in maintenance mode. There are however eventual plans to build upon lichen to provide a more user-friendly experience including a graphical user interface. In the meantime, we are still accepting contributions to help improve the codebase.
cargo build
sudo ./target/debug/lichen
To quit the installer, press ESC to switch to command mode, then press q.
lichen is available under the terms of the MPL-2.0
