Installation

Overview

UmmItOS provides two ways to install: the quick script and manual installation

• Quick Installation: Use the automated installation script (Recommended)
• Manual Installation: Clone the repository and run the installation script manually (For advanced users who only want to install certain parts of the dotfiles)

Quick Installation

Quick Installation is the recommended way to install UmmItOS. It will install all the necessary packages and copy the configurations to your system. We also provide a post-install script to help you configure your system.

You can simply run the automated installation script:

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/UmmItKin/Dotfiles/main/setup.sh)

The setup script automatically checks for git and paru dependencies and installs them if needed, then clones the dotfiles repository and copies configurations to your system.

Installation Process

The installation script performs the following steps, each step is optional and can be skipped individually for modular installation.

1. Required Packages: Installs necessary packages for the dotfiles
2. GPU Detection: Automatically detects and installs AMD GPU packages if applicable
3. Laptop Detection: Installs laptop-specific packages when running on laptop hardware
4. Configuration Copy: Copies all configurations to ~/.config
5. Post-Install Script: Runs the post-install script to help you configure your system

Manual Installation (CLI)

Manual Installation allows you to install UmmItOS manually by cloning the repository and running the installation script yourself.

git clone --depth 1 --shallow-submodules --recursive https://github.com/UmmItKin/Dotfiles.git
cd Dotfiles
./install.sh

The [y/n] prompt will ask you to confirm the installation. You can press y to confirm the installation or n to skip it and follow the steps manually.

Experimental TUI Installation (Not finish.)
