About

Xenia Linux is based on Gentoo Linux, a distribution that is known for its flexibility and customization.

Xenia features an immutable rootFS, not too dissimilar from distributions such as Fedora Silverblue. The root is stored as a squashFS which is mounted on boot by our custom initramfs.

Currently, Xenia Linux is in the very early stages of development, however you can keep updated on the project through our GitLab repo.

Download

Xenia Linux is currently in extremely early development. We currently have an installer in the works, but it is not complete. You can keep an eye on development as well as read about Xenia's architecture and philosophy at our GitLab repo.

Soon, we will have an installer which will automatically setup your disk, install the rootFS and install the kernel + initramfs.

Who we are

Xenia Linux is a project created by Jack and Luna.

We are both friends who look to develop a new, usable distribution for more advanced Linux enthusiasts to use and enjoy.

Credits

Xenia Linux is based on the Gentoo Linux project and makes use of the Xenia Mascot originally designed in 1996 by Alan Mackey as an alternative to Tux.

Xenia Linux makes use of a custom build of Neofetch which contains support for recognising Xenia Linux, and is to have a pull request created soon to have it added to the official repository.

The art used for Xenia Linux in both the logo, and the custom Neofetch fork was designed by the user @ioletsgo who has given us permission to use their art in this project.
