🚀 Calamares Installer is Here! Vostok Linux ISOs Officially Released

The wait is over! We have officially released the stable Vostok Linux Workstation ISO images, featuring the highly anticipated Calamares graphic installer for both Standard and NVIDIA editions.

We are thrilled to announce the official release of Vostok Linux Workstation ISO images. This milestone release brings a seamless, user-friendly installation experience powered by the customized Calamares framework. Whether you are a newcomer or an experienced user, deploying Vostok Linux alongside your existing systems is now easier and safer than ever.

To ensure maximum reliability and prevent filesystem-related boot errors on launch, we have standardized ext4 as the default filesystem for this release. The installer fully supports both modern UEFI and traditional BIOS Legacy hardware configurations, automatically setting up the system bootloader with no extra manual tweaking required.

For security and authenticity, every ISO image is digitally signed with our official GPG release master key. We provide verifiable SHA256 checksums alongside the download links so you can easily guarantee that your installation media is secure and completely unmodified.
