Installation

⚠ NVIDIA : The screen may go black for 2–3 minutes on first boot. This is normal — the GPU driver is compiling. Wait and do not force reboot.

Download the ISO and verify the SHA256 checksum above.
2
Flash to a USB drive (8 GB minimum) using Balena Etcher, Rufus, or dd.
3
Boot from the USB drive — select it in your BIOS/UEFI boot menu (usually F12 or F2).
4
Follow the Anaconda installer — choose your disk, timezone and create your account.
5
Reboot and remove the USB drive. The welcome wizard will run on first boot.
