Miasma OS  

About

Miasma OS is a Fedora Atomic desktop built with love on top of a Bazzite base. It is a spin aimed at music producers and musicians utilising features found in Fedora Jam Lab, Av Linux and Ubuntu Studio but on an immutable base thanks to Bazzite and Universal blue.

Installation

Warning

This is an experimental feature, try at your own discretion.

To rebase an existing atomic Fedora installation to the latest build:

• First rebase to the unsigned image, to get the proper signing keys and policies installed:

  rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/tumillanino/miasma-os:latest
  

• Reboot to complete the rebase:

  systemctl reboot
  

• Then rebase to the signed image, like so:

  rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/tumillanino/miasma-os:latest
  

• Reboot again to complete the installation

  systemctl reboot
  

• On first launch, please open Alacritty and run the script below in order to properly configure Wine with Yabridge, Reaper paths, and system flags.

  ujust first-run

The latest tag will automatically point to the latest build. That build will still always use the Fedora version specified in recipe.yml, so you won't get accidentally updated to the next major version.

ISO

An ISO and website is coming soon ...
