    zypher-systems released this 2026-10-25 06:52:11 +00:00 | 21 commits to main since this release

    First-run fixes for 0.2.0 "Daily driver", and the move to codevault.

    What's new

    • The ISO's boot menu starts ZypherOS by default. The entry that checks the whole medium first is still in the menu
    • Plasma Setup shows its welcome text over a blurred, darkened Kinetic wallpaper instead of on top of the wordmark
    • No KDE Wallet wizard in the live session when unlocking a disk
    • Installed systems check the Kinetic repository for updates every hour, not every six
    • Kinetic moves to codevault: packages come from its RPM registry, and the ISO is built by codevault's runners and attached to this release
    • Documentation and bug report links point to codevault

    Upgrading from 0.2.0

    The old package repository on GitHub Pages is gone, so point an installed system at the new one once:

    sudo dnf install https://codevault.sh/api/packages/zypher-systems/rpm/fedora-44/package/kinetic-repos/0.1.0-2.fc44/noarch
    sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
    

    dnf asks once to import the registry's key. Its fingerprint is 02FD 8554 3792 3491 1067 0877 04F2 E1A4 4156 CFD5. After that, updates arrive with dnf upgrade as before.

    Verifying the ISO

    The checksum file is signed with the ZypherOS key, fingerprint 098E 710A DBE3 FEE4 351B 44F4 0EE4 C89F 7AE0 182E (in the repo at packages/kinetic-repos/keys/RPM-GPG-KEY-zypheros):

    gpg --import RPM-GPG-KEY-zypheros
    gpg --verify ZypherOS-Kinetic-0.2.1-x86_64.iso.sha256.asc ZypherOS-Kinetic-0.2.1-x86_64.iso.sha256
    sha256sum -c ZypherOS-Kinetic-0.2.1-x86_64.iso.sha256
    

    Write the ISO straight to a USB drive (dd, or Fedora Media Writer). Installing through Ventoy from a large external SSD has failed once and is still being looked into.
