Security is not first. It is only.
A Linux distribution that puts you in control. Built from source, understood completely — designed for people who want to know how their machine works, and for people who wish they could.
R001.4 released · live ISO & binary mirror onlineR001.x is the first public release line; the project is in active development. The current release is always stated at https://intergenos.org/news.html.
01Built from source
Every package compiled from a Linux From Scratch 13.0 base with deliberate choices — no inherited bloat, no mystery dependencies. The build system is the product: reproducible, documented, tested.
02Hardened by default
A sealed, signature-verified boot chain, minimum-surface package recipes, and supply-chain scrutiny on every source. Built to hold up against capable, AI-assisted adversaries — not just yesterday's threats.
03A local AI that teaches
A fully local, tiered AI assistant — no cloud, no telemetry. When it runs a command it shows you what it did and why, so you understand your system more after every interaction, not less.
04Yours to understand
No opaque components, no hidden complexity, no defaults that serve the project instead of you. Plain-text configuration you can read, a transparent package manager, and an installer that explains every step.
Every choice — package, default, API — answers two questions: does it keep the user in control? and does it hold up against capable adversaries? If it fails either, it doesn't ship — no matter how conventional the alternative.
