02. Installation & Deployment

Before you installThis changes your desktop configuration. Run it as your normal user, never with sudo: it asks for sudo only where a step needs it (listed below).The guided installer shows its plan first. Files it would replace are kept unless you approve. Everything it copies, clones or appends to in your home folder is backed up and verified first, and --rollback restores it. Packages, sudo changes and the other commands listed under Impact are not undone.

IntegrityEach release from main builds the installers in GitHub Actions and signs them with a GitHub build attestation. Verify your download against the repository, not this website (Option B, step 2). If it does not verify, don't run it.

ImpactUses sudo: sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

RecoveryGuided: backups in ~/.local/state/0xtsoa/backups/, undo with bash install.sh --rollback.Manual: the steps below only write in the download folder or run listed commands.

$git -C ~/0xtsoa-review/adisoncavani-distro-grub-themes checkout --detach 6e9e018abf38c0b3ed2bff1912ecf30a94e0c917# 2. the reviewed commit
