• Frequent Updates: Regularly receives security and performance updates, ensuring a secure and up-to-date environment.
• Package Management: Utilizes the powerful yay package manager alongside the traditional pacman, providing a flexible and efficient way to manage software packages.
• Minimal Footprint: Designed to be lightweight and resource-efficient, ideal for running in Docker containers.

Getting Started

Using Distrobox

Each level builds upon the last, adding more features and configurations:

• Level 1: Quartz - The base installation, like a blank canvas.
• Level 2: Amethyst - Essential tools (like curl, wget, docker, and more) and a few quality-of-life improvements.
• Level 3: Topaz - Specialized software for development. Comes with python, nodejs, and rust preinstalled.
• Level 4: Emerald - Remote shell and tunnel support (via tmate, rdp or ssh), and a full Enlightenment Desktop preinstalled.

Using Docker

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/lunamidori5/Midori-AI-Cluster-OS.git

2. Navigate to the aiclusteros Directory

cd Midori-AI-Cluster-OS/aiclusteros

3. Run the Image and Access the Shell

Using docker-compose:

a. Edit the docker-compose.yaml file:

b. Start the container in detached mode:

docker compose up -d

c. Access the container shell:

docker exec -it aiclusteros-pixelarch-os-1 /bin/bash

Note: The container name might differ from pixelarch-os, check your Docker Compose output or docker ps -a for the actual name.

Using docker run: (Not Recommened)

Build the Docker Image

docker build -t pixelarch -f arch_dockerfile .

Run the docker bash shell

docker run -it pixelarch /bin/bash

Package Management

Use the yay package manager to install and update software:

yay -Syu <package_name>

Example:

yay -Syu vim

This will install or update the vim text editor.

Note:

• Replace <package_name> with the actual name of the package you want to install or update.
• The -Syu flag performs a full system update, including package updates and dependencies.
