penguins-eggs is a console tool, under continuous development, that allows you to remaster your system and redistribute it as live images on usb sticks or via PXE, work on amd64, i386 and ARM64.
Features
- Supports: AlmaLinux, Alpine, Arch, Debian, Devuan, Fedora, Manjaro, OpenSuSE, RockyLinux, Ubuntu and major derivatives: Linuxmint, KDE neon, EndeavourOS, Garuda, etc. You can easily add more derivatives.
- Supports: i386, amd64 and arm64 architecture, from old PCs, common PCs to single board computers like Raspberry Pi 4/5
- Fast: does not copy the original filesystem but the livefs is obtained instantly. Also, by default, eggs uses the zstd compression algorithm, reducing the time up to 10 times!
- Clone: with the --clone flag you save the data and accounts of unencrypted users that will also be available from live
- Crypted clone: you can save user data and accounts in an encrypted LUKS volume within the ISO image;
- Cuckoo: start cuckoo from live and you will have a PXE boot server available for all computers on the network
- TUI/GUI installer: eggs has its own system installer called krill, which allows installation in all situations where a GUI is not available. When You are on a desktop system instead, eggs recommends and configures the calamares GUI installer.
- Safe: only use the original distro's packages, without any modification in your repository lists.
- Wardrobe: with wardrobe and costumes you have a way to organize your customizations, components, samples and more
- Documentation: penguins' eggs users' guide;
- Support: I am doing my best to provide as much documentation and support as possible; the sources, user guide, blog and social channels. Please add your support and suggestions, your liking: that's what the project is all about!

Great project. Could you make an MX linux image with the cinnamon desktop and the Calamares installer?

Penguins Eggs just keeps getting better with more and more features. Thank you for such a versatile tool. So glad I found it when I did. I've been using it almost daily for 6 months and the small issues I've had have been solved by reporting them directly to the creator. Recommend this for anyone who is needing an install solution for their Linux OS's.

A project that was missing in the gnu-linux landscape and that allows penguin lovers to customize their favorite distribution by customizing it according to their tastes or to back up the entire system with or without the data. Penguin's eggs is easy to use and Piero Proietti, head of the project, is always available to give information and help in the use of the program.

RebornOS makes iso boots up perfectly but calamares does not start. Thnaks Jim

A brilliant tool that converts any system to iso. It really made my life a lot easier. I wanted to create a linux distribution for my collegemates and I wanted the system to be installable. This tool automated everything for me. Long live eggs!Reply from Penguins' eggsPosted 2024-02-09
