From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Does it even have a live USB? I thought that's not a thing with immutable distros? At least Kinoite didn't have a live USB option.
Silverblue doesnt either... I think you're right, it's an immutable distro thing.
I wasn't able to find one. Which, if anyone saw my shitpost, is the real reason I installed it on my crapbook. I found out that the installer is pretty great, it just worked out of the box (at least on that computer, my gaming machine has an Nvidia graphics card...), and that GMOME isn't really for me.
Where did you get the iso from? Or was this some time ago? Cause actually getting the iso is my first problem :D
Seeing your post I was actually worried because next week I wanted to install Bazzite on my laptop. For me the download worked fine though, 3-4 MB/s, its the bazzite Asus nvidia image. So it seems more of a problem with your internet connection somehow, more specific to wherever they store downloads.
Are you downloading with a download manager that could retry connecting when it fails?
Did the download finish?
Yes. Admittedly I don't have time to test if it really boots. I wanted to do that some time end of next week when I got a day off to take care of stuff.
