Endeavour OS WIKI:
With this release, we introduce a new app called eos-apps-info. It lists all our apps that enhance the experience of our distro. It isn’t only a list but it also contains manuals, based on Pandoc, of each app with a clear instruction that includes pictures as well, just to make it more convenient.
Manuel made sure this database is small and light, so it doesn’t take a lot of space on the system. This app is the perfect locally installed manual for people with limited internet access or just for everyone who likes to have the info offline.
Changelog for 27.08.2021 Release:
When using auto partitioning in the installer, BTRFS now can be chosen with the possibility to create a file system with a sub volume scheme. Needless to say that EXT4 will still be an option to choose from in the auto partition.
Now, the Wi-Fi setting used in the live environment will be automatically installed during installation, so there’s no need to re-enter your password on a new install.
When chosen a DE or WM that uses LightDM, the settings of LightDM have been improved to prevent a black screen at boot with certain hardware systems. Now LightDM will wait until the GPU and GPU settings are completely initialized before starting up. GDM and SDDM didn’t have this issue.
The boot process on the initial boot is more failproof, thanks to improvements the Arch team made on the archiso.
The installation process doesn’t fetch packages from GitHub anymore but fetches them from our repository, to prevent failed installs from users in countries where GitHub is blocked or failing due to personal security settings like firewalls etc.
Another improvement to prevent failed installations is the hugely improved mirrorlist handling that minimizes the use of bad mirrors.
Calamares has an improved and better design that makes it easier for the user to deselect the packages they don’t need in the selected DE.
When chosen XFCE4 or i3wm in the online installer, we now offer the possibility to select or deselect the EndeavourOS theming. For the offline XFCE4 install, the EndeavourOS theme will still be installed.
The Linux-lts kernel can now be chosen as an option in Calamares.
With the help of our moderators, we have successfully implemented the option to use parallel downloads, introduced with Pacman 6, to choose during install which decreases the installation time by a landslide. The installation time is already incredibly fast by default compared to the previous ISO, but for people who have a fast and reliable internet speed, choosing parallel downloads can be a lightning-fast installation experience.
