Default config OS configuration: packages system core, nano, vim, sudo, NetworkManager, uConsole kernel, bootloader, wifi firmware and their dependencies root has no password, and cannot be used directly a normal user account named ucon is set up, with the password ucon it’s in group adm and wheel so it has full access to sudo, systemd stuff Download link check this link for lates…

I use this one. Very easy to set up with the pre built image. I’m running kde, but I was having issues with Wayland cooperating with retroarch and picotron so I switched to x11 and it’s been working great. Highly recommended.
