Solus 4.5 'Resilience' Linux-based operating system now available for download


The Solus development team has released version 4.5 of the Linux distribution. Code-named “Resilience,” it marks a significant update in the Solus operating system lineup. This release brings forth a ton of enhancements, including updated applications and kernels, revamped software stacks, a new installation experience, and the introduction of an ISO edition with the XFCE desktop environment.
A standout feature of Solus 4.5 is the implementation of the Calamares installer, replacing the Python 2-based os-installer. This transition not only makes installation more straightforward, particularly with filesystems like BTRFS, but it also represents a strategic move away from Python 2. The installer now allows users to customize their partition layout directly, significantly enhancing the installation process.
