Build

⚠️ This requires an Arch-based system.

1.📦 Install Required Packages

ShuzzyOS uses the official archiso package to build the custom ISO:

sudo pacman -S archiso

2.📁 Clone the Git Repository

The repository contains everything you need to build, modify, and configure the ISO — including all relevant dotfiles.

git clone https://github.com/RealShuzzy/ShuzzyOS.git

3.🔨 Build the ISO

Run the following commands to build the ISO:

cd ShuzzyOS
mkarchiso -v -w ./iso/output -o ./iso/output ./iso/baseline/

After the build completes, your ISO file will be located in:

./iso/output/

⚠️ Before installing ShuzzyOS, we need to make the ISO bootable.
