→ AnduinOS ∞

I was told by AnduinOS by one of my friend. I was told that it looks like Windows 11

I was intrigued.

Spoiler Alert : It does not 😄

All it really has is the centered menu button - which was to the left bottom for the longest time. Everywhere. Gnome, KDE and other DE (even until Win10) ¹

It is based on Ubuntu and uses (skinned) Gnome.

It did not boot on my MBP (Currently running Linux Mint)

I just got the grub prompt. The USB was not recognized as EFI boot. 😢

I have tried too many live ISO on this machine, so I *know machine is not a problem. Maybe AnduinOS write the disk (a bit?) differently ? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I did try it on a windows PC (Dell) - and it booted fine.

The website does say it supports only x86_64 architecture - which my machine is.

A little bit searching revealed that my old Apple machine may not be fully ACPI compliant.

Overall, I am not impressed.

It may be very good Gnome based distro.

But it is not for me.

I’m happy with Linux Mint. Thank you.
