Description

LiGurOS is a source based distribution based on broad family of Gentoo-based distributions. Source based means all the software is compiled from source. The Gentoo-family of operating systems heavily uses portage as the package manager with the ability to change settings globally but also per package. So you can specify what exact configuration options are passed to the package upon building. This results in a operating system without bloat and running optimized for your processor.

LiGurOS is optimized for speed and taking advantage of the latest features of AMD and Intel processors. LiGurOS tries to balance between state-of-the-art and stability, providing two basic release models (stable and rolling). As LiGurOS is a semi-/rolling-release distribution, you install the system once and update it throughout the life of your hardware.

LiGurOS gives you the choice of your favorite services manager, out-of-the-box we support openrc, but s6 and others are also an option.

LiGurOS still comes with multilib environment so you can install also 32-bit software (e.g. Steam) on your 64-bit machine without problem.

Linux Guru’s Operating System was created with the need to address some issues that source-based distributions and rolling distributions have. Like transparent automatic testing, semi-rolling release with stability and security in mind just to name a few.
