📋 Prerequisites

  • usbKey A USB flash drive with a minimum capacity of 8GB.
  • balenaEtcher

Caution

We recommend using balenaEtcher instead of Ventoy when flashing the ISO. Using Ventoy sometimes seems to block the installation ISO at “step 1” of the boot process, but this is not systematic or specific to GLF-OS

🫆 Checksum Verification (Optional but recommended)

  1. Download the checksum file from one of the download links.
  2. Use a checksum verification tool to compare the downloaded file with the provided checksum.

usbKey Make the USB bootable
