- Download the image.
Use the button above to get the compressed standard image. Extracting it requires about 9GB of additional disk space.
- Write it to a USB drive of 16GB or larger.
Choose the image and target USB drive in an image-writing app such as balenaEtcher. If your app does not accept compressed images, extract the .xz and select the .img. Simply copying the file onto a USB drive will not make it bootable.
- Boot the USB in UEFI mode.
Select the USB drive’s UEFI entry in the boot menu. Secure Boot must be off. Setup and boot-menu keys vary by manufacturer; Dell typically uses F2 / F12.
- Try it, then install.
Check your display, Wi-Fi and input devices in the live environment. When installing, review the target disk and the data that will be erased before proceeding.
Writing the image erases existing data on the selected USB drive. Back up your files and confirm the target device name and capacity.

Before you start
- This is an x86_64 image, not a native installation image for ARM devices.
- Legacy BIOS and 32-bit UEFI boot are not supported.
- Wi-Fi supports WPA2. WPA3-only networks and enterprise or school authentication methods are not supported.

Frequently asked questions
Is this an ISO file?
No. It is a .img disk image for USB drives and virtual disks. For a virtual machine, extract it and attach the .img as a disk, not as a CD/DVD or ISO.
Can I install it alongside Windows?
The installer offers free-space and specific-partition options. Whole-disk installation erases existing contents. Review the target and erase scope, and back up important data first.
My USB drive is missing from the boot menu.
Make sure you wrote the image to the device rather than copied the file. Check USB capacity, 64-bit UEFI settings and Secure Boot settings.
What can recovery mode do?
Use the recovery shell, disk checks and the reinstallation data included in this standard image. Administrator actions require authentication.
