# Install TsukineOS from an Image

> Download and boot the TsukineOS image (x86_64 ISO / ARM64 IMG).

# Installation (Image Boot)

TsukineOS currently **does not have a graphical installer**. It provides ready-made images: `.iso` for x86\_64 and `.img` for ARM64.

## Get the Image

Download the latest release from GitHub Releases (currently **Infdev-0.2.4**):

| Architecture | File                               | Purpose                                            |
| ------------ | ---------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| x86\_64      | `tsukineos-infdev0.2.4-x86_64.iso` | Physical machine / QEMU / Ventoy                   |
| ARM64        | `tsukineos-infdev0.2.4-arm64.img`  | Raspberry Pi and other ARM devices (SD card flash) |

## x86\_64: Three Ways to Boot

**1. QEMU (Recommended for first try, most stable)**

```bash theme={null}
qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 \
  -cdrom tsukineos-infdev0.2.4-x86_64.iso -boot d
```

**2. Ventoy USB Drive**

Copy the ISO into the Ventoy partition and select it from the Ventoy boot menu.

**3. Direct Write to Disk (Use with Caution)**

```bash theme={null}
sudo dd if=tsukineos-infdev0.2.4-x86_64.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M status=progress
```

> `sdX` is the target disk identifier. Writing to the wrong disk will erase all data on it.

## ARM64: Flash to SD Card

```bash theme={null}
xzcat tsukineos-infdev0.2.4-arm64.img.xz | sudo dd of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=4M status=progress
```

After flashing, insert the SD card into a Raspberry Pi-like device and power it on.
