snowdesktop: Immutable Debian desktop for developers
SnowLinux is an immutable Debian desktop environment designed specifically for developers. It is a work in progress and does not guarantee backwards compatibility. The SnowLinux operating system is based on ParticleOS and built using mkosi. Before installing, ensure Secure Boot is enabled in the system's firmware settings. Install SnowLinux from a USB drive by building the image on a Linux system and then burning it to the USB drive.
Upon booting into the installer, run snowctl install to install the operating system. After installation, reboot into the regular profile. The system does not support adding a recovery key to a partition with a token only; however, a recovery password can be added to the root partition using cryptsetup luksAddKey. Some firmware dependencies may be missing; report these issues to the module maintainer.
