The installation was the most challenging part of the experience, as it requires more detailed configuration than other Linux distributions such as Ubuntu or Linux Mint. I had to pay close attention to disk partitioning and system configuration, so I believe it is not a distribution aimed at beginner users. Once the installation was completed, the system worked properly. It offers a modern, clean, and pleasant interface, and the performance inside the virtual machine was very good, with smooth responsiveness while navigating the desktop and running basic applications. Resource usage was reasonable for a virtualized environment, using 2 GB of RAM, 2 virtual processors, and a 70 GB virtual disk. The **oma** package manager was interesting and handled software installation and updates correctly. However, its documentation and support community are much smaller compared to those of more popular Linux distributions. Among its main strengths are its stability, good performance, attractive interface, and support for multiple architectures. On the downside, I found the installation process to be fairly complex, and there is limited documentation available for troubleshooting specific issues. Overall, AOSC OS is a solid Linux distribution for users with intermediate or advanced Linux knowledge, but I would not recommend it as a first choice for beginners. Aside from the installation complexity, it provides an excellent user experience. Great work by the AOSC OS development team. Was this review helpful?

So let me tell the issue. I used dd to burn the image on my debian linux, rebooting the computer to get into the BIOS setup, finally entering the install procedures. I set my locale, typing my password, consequently finding myself stuck. The monitor just turn black. And I was powerless. As a result, I gave up installing it on my PC. Nevertheless, I used to be a user of the distribution. When I was tired of a distro, I will jump between distinct distributions. So I jumped, and no longer came back. To be frank, it's a really great disto for Chinese. I think you should try it. Was this review helpful? Yes No
