  • To compare the software in this project to the software available in other distributions, please see our Compare Packages page.
  • Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

 I downloaded and tried Berry Linux yesterday.

I am very impressed by the fact that they compress a 2 gig img into less than 1/2 a gig. This is clearly more economically viable than a massive iso, for the end user at least.

But that's all I can say about Berry Linux, because it won't boot.

I installed it to a flash drive using balenaEtcher. It would not boot.

I installed it to a flash drive using Ventoy. It would not boot.

I installed it to a flash drive using the dd command in terminal. It would not boot.

It did not recognize my hardware.

This was not a problem when trying Fedora 36, and never has been a problem with any previous versions of Fedora.

My computer is a Dell Inspiron 15 3000 that came with Ubuntu 18.04 OEM. It's made to be compatible with Linux.

Berry Linux is based on Fedora; so what have they done to make it so unusable?

This gives me good reason to stick with Fedora. All of their 'spins' are effectively in-house, and they all work.

Berry Linux seems to be trying to do what happens in the anarchic Debian/Ubuntu ecosphere, where there are distros based upon distros which are based upon distros.

That there are very few Fedora based spin-offs is quite telling. All Fedora 'spins' are created within and maintained by the Fedora community.

Berry Linux seems to be yet another vanity distro, that happens to be accidentally based upon Fedora.

Don't blame Fedora for this one.

 Berry works beautifully. It’s very lightweight, stability is great, applications open up speedily and work well. I wish there were more Linux distros from Japan, the developers definitely know how to make Linux function well.

 Would be higher if it has GRUB2, SAMBA, and if Wayland based (as is Fedora) without the need for the users to add these responsibility needs.

Maybe the next releases will be have this 'old' technologyies added
