Before you install
Read the release notes and installation guide before downloading. Select an image that matches the processor architecture and intended use: desktop, server, live media, virtual machine or another published edition. Test Wi-Fi, graphics, audio, storage and suspend from live media when that option is available. Back up important files before repartitioning, encryption changes or dual-boot installation. Download from an official project page or mirror, compare the published SHA-256 checksum, and verify a signed checksum when the project provides one. After installation, apply updates before adding third-party repositories or drivers.
- 1Check the SHA-256
Compare the file with the checksum published by siduction. If it does not match, download it again.
- 2Write it to a USB drive
Use Ventoy, balenaEtcher, Fedora Media Writer or Rufus. Copying the ISO as a normal file does not work.
- 3Boot from the USB
Open the boot menu (often F12, F10 or Esc) and choose the USB drive in UEFI mode. Back up your data first.
About siduction
siduction is a rolling distribution based on Debian Unstable and provides live installation media with project tools for system maintenance. Its snapshots are installation points for a system that continues receiving rolling updates. This entry selects the official 2026.1.0 amd64 X.Org image built on 18 October 2026; the project also publishes desktop-specific images.
Who is it for?
siduction is primarily suited to daily desktop use, study, web browsing and productivity; experienced Linux users who want detailed control over the system. Its rolling-release model delivers changes continuously, so regular updates and attention to project announcements are part of normal maintenance. This distribution is based on debian, which influences package formats, repositories and much of the available documentation. The listed desktop environment is X.Org; confirm its memory, graphics and accessibility requirements on the official project site. The best choice depends on hardware support, preferred software, update policy and the amount of system administration the user wants to perform.
