Quick start

Edit the config file to match your needs. Sensible defaults are already there. Then run zsh. To avoid issues, it's best to start a vanilla session, without preloaded config files so it doesn't cause issues with libdevuansdk/delphinium-sdk functions.

zsh -f
source sdk

Now is the time you choose the OS, a blend, and architecture.

Currently supported distros

• delphinium

Example:

load delphinium delphinium-desktop-live amd64

Once initialized, you can run the helper command:

build_iso_dist

The image will be automatically built for you. Once finished, you will be able to find it in the dist/ directory in delphinium-sdk's root.
