Donya Operating System, Yet Another GNU/Linux distro built using a package management system.

Unlike a binary software distribution, the source code is compiled locally according to the user’s preferences and is often optimized for the specific type of computer.

This Linux distribution is not yet ready, we need the help of others. Join the team by sending a message at this issue

DonyaOS Installation Guide

Install Donya

Just only use the compressed package donyaOS-build.tar.xz

Suppose we have another hard disk sdb to install donyaOS on it. Create a 100 MB partition in it.

Format

sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1

Mount new created sdb1

sudo mkdir "$base_dir"/donya_release/ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 "$base_dir"/donya/

Extract donyaOS inside it

sudo tar xJf ${base_dir}/donyaOS-build.tar.xz -C "$base_dir"/donya/

Install grub in MBR

sudo grub-install --root-directory="$base_dir"/donya/ /dev/sdb

Run with qemu

sudo qemu-system-x86_64 /dev/sdb

Build from source

./donya

Preparation

...Download dependency files and decompress or uncomment from donya.sh...
bash donya.sh

Network

Configure on VirtualBox

ifconfig eth0 10.0.2.16 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default gw 10.0.2.2

lfs donyaOS

We have build linux from scratch version of donyaOS.

get donyaOS-lfs

We highly recommend using a virtual machine guest OS to save real machine.

This method tested on Debian buster net-install with an extra hard disk to install donyaOS-lfs on it.

We want to use /dev/sdb device The extra partition is /dev/sdb1

• Create new partition on target device

fdisk /dev/sdb with these switches o, n, p, a

• format new partition

mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1

• mount partition

mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt

Copy donyaOS-lfs image to partition

cd /mnt tar xvf ~/donyaOS_backup.tar.xz .

• Update grub to find new distro

# update-grub2

In next boot you can log in to donyaOS-lfs from the grub menu.

How to test LFS in virtual machine

After download lfs.fsa file

1. Install a linux distro in virtual machine (we recommends debian stable netinstall)

2. Add a new hard disk 8GB

3. Boot to distro

4. Partition and format new hdd

   • fdisk # create partition
   • mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1 # format new created partition

5. Extract lfs.fsa to destination partition

   • mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ -r #mount read only
   • fsarchiver restfs lfs.fsa id=0,dest=/dev/sdb1 #extract

6. Update grub to detect new distro

   • grub2-update

7. Reboot system
