If you prefer the bittorrent protocol, you can also download our ISOs from linuxtracker.org.
The official ISOs below are signed with PGP key 0xB886B428. To verify an ISO after it is downloaded, get its signature and issue the following (the file names are given as examples):
A few older ISOs can be found archived here.
- Base ISOs provide a bare minimum system. Installation is done in a TTY and is intended for knowledgeable users. If you don't know what a TTY is or can't read the wiki instructions, don't get base.
- Minimal images come with a slightly preconfigured desktop system (LXQt, LXDE, MATE, Cinnamon, KDE/Plasma) and a basic set of applications: a file manager, a media player (mpv), a network manager, a document viewer, a web browser and the graphical installer. Most people would want this ISO.
- The community ISO images are created by individual Artix developers and come in 2 flavours: GTK and Qt. The main environment is MATE and KDE/Plasma, respectively, but they also provide LXDE and LXQt as lightweight alternatives. These images contain a complete set of applications for general desktop use, especially KDE/Plasma. They are generally well-tested but provided without official support. Recommended for users that want a fully preconfigured desktop that Just Works™ and/or are too busy to set it up themselves.
- ISOs marked as gremlins contain testing features.
