<h2>Bittorrent</h2>
<p>Before torrenting, ensure doing so will not get you into trouble with local authorities.
The possibility of this happening is small, but not impossible. If you live in the United States, or Europe, this should not be an issue.</p>

<p>Commands prefixed with <code><mark>(chroot)#</mark></code> should be run as the root user inside the chroot environment.</p>
<p>This guide assumes your system has access to the internet. There are no tools for configuring the network in the iso. Use of a hardwired ethernet connection is recommended.</p>
<p></p>
<h2>First Steps</h2>
<h3>Prepare the disk</h3>
<p>Create a disk partition for your root filesystem, a boot partition, and any other partitions you may want to make.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Create valid filesystems on the partitions (FAT32 for boot, and Ext4/Btrfs/XFS/ZFS on root).</p>
<p><code><mark># mkfs.vfat -F32 /dev/boot</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark># mkfs.ext4 /dev/root</mark></code></p>
<p>Mount the newly created root partition to /mnt/everest.</p>
<p><code><mark># mkdir /mnt/everest</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark># mount /dev/root /mnt/everest</mark></code></p>
<h3>Create the EV variable</h3>
<p>Create the "EV" variable, which will save some typing down the road.</p>
<p><code><mark># export EV=/mnt/everest</mark></code></p>
<p>Ensure the variable was created correctly. It will be <strong>very</strong> important to check this multiple times during installation.</p>
<p><code><mark># echo $EV</mark></code></p>
<p></p>
<h2>Unpacking Tarball</h2>
<h3>Download the rootfs tarball</h3>
<p>To install Everest, you will need the rootfs tarball containing the necessary toolchain.</p>
<p><code><mark># wget https://github.com/everest-linux/everest/releases/download/vX.X.X-systemd-rc/everestlinux-summit-X.X.X-systemd-rc.tar.xz</mark></code></p>
<p></p>
<h3>Unpack the rootfs tarball</h3>
<p>To unpack the tarball:</p>
<p><code><mark># tar xpvf everestlinux-summit-X.X.X-systemd.tar.xz --xattrs-include='*.*' --numeric-owner</mark></code></p>
<p>The tarball must be unpacked with the command above. Using only <code><mark>tar xpvf</mark></code> will not retain ownership and some binaries will refuse to execute.</p>
<h3>Enter the chroot environemnt</h3>
<p>Enter the chroot environment. This will allow you to install system packages.</p>
<p><code><mark># chroot "$EV" /usr/bin/env -i \</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark> HOME=/root \</mark></code></p>

<h2>Installing System Packages</h2>
<h2>Building the System</h2>
<p>Now that we are inside the chroot environment, we can install packages to the system.</p>
<h3>Configure the Glacier build environment</h3>
<p>Before we start, creating <code>/etc/make.conf</code> is recommended. This is so you can specify extra makeflags, most notably, the <code>-jX</code> flag will allow <code>make</code> to utilize more than 1 core.</p>
<p><code># /etc/make.conf</code></p>
<p>
<p><code>MAKEFLAGS=-jX</code></p>
<p></p>
<h3>Symbolism</h3>
<p>The following symbols will be used to describe packages</p>
<p> -(!) Vital system package, <strong>do not omit.</strong></p>
<p> -(S) Source package</p>
<p> -(B) Binary package</p>
<p> -(L) Long installation time</p>
<p></p>
<h3>Install system packages</h3>
<p><strong>(!) (B) Glacier</strong></p>
<p>This package contains the Glacier package manager, which manages installed packages on the system. It uses wget and tar as its backens, both of which are included in the tarball.</p>
<p><strong>To install Glacier:</strong><code><mark>(chroot)# rm -rf /tmp/glacier && cd /tmp && git clone https://github.com/everest-linux/glacier &&
<p><strong>To install Glacier:</strong><code><mark>(chroot)# rm -rf /tmp/glacier && cd /tmp && git clone https://git.everestlinux.org/EverestLinux/glacier &&
cd glacier/install && chmod +x INSTALL-GLACIER.sh && sudo ./INSTALL-GLACIER.sh || doas ./INSTALL-GLACIER.sh</mark></code></p>
<p></p>
<p>Note that Glacier cannot manage itself, so you will need to update every month or so.</p>

<p><i>Warning: Some documentation for the kernel recommends symlinking /usr/src/linux to the kernel source tree, however this is specific to 2.6 series kernels and <strong>MUST NOT BE CREATED</strong> as it can cause conflics with Glacier.</i></p>
<p><i>Warning: The headers in /usr/include should <strong>ALWAYS</strong> be the ones against which your standard C library was compiled. They should <strong>NEVER</strong> be replaced by either the raw kernel headers or the sanitized headers of any other kernel.</i></p>
<p>Move the kernel source tree into <code><mark>/usr/src/linux</mark></code> for easy access later on.</p>
<p>Create /etc/modprobe.d/usb.conf, which will ensure USB modules are started in the correct order</p>
<p><code><mark>install -v -m755 -d /etc/modprobe.d</mark></code></p>

<h2>Configuring the System</h2>
<p>Now we must configure the system so it will boot correctly</p>
<h3>Install optional administration tools</h3>
<p>As a recommendation for easy access to the root account, installing <code><mark>sudo</mark></code> or <code><mark>doas</mark></code> is highly recommended, as it will remove the need to log in as root with <code><mark>su</mark></code> and will only require invoking <code><mark>sudo</mark></code> or <code><mark>doas</mark></code>.
<p>In the case of <code><mark>sudo</mark></code>, the following line will need to be uncommented from <code><mark>/etc/sudoers</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark>%wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL</mark></code></p>
<p>In the case of <code><mark>doas</mark></code>, <code><mark>/etc/doas.conf</mark></code> will need to be created, containing the following:</p>
<p><code><mark>permit :wheel</mark></code></p>
<h3>Configure the network</h3>
<p>Install NetworkManager</p>
<p><code><mark>(chroot)# glacier -f</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark>[ ? ] networkmanager</mark></code></p>
<p>Set the default network interface up</p>
<p><code><mark>(chroot)# ip link</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark>(chroot)# ip link set interface_name up</mark></code></p>
<p>If using systemd, enable the service</p>
<p><code><mark>(chroot)# systemctl enable NetworkManager</mark></code></p>
<p>You will be unable to start the service from inside the chroot environment.</p>
<p>Create <code><mark>/etc/hostname</mark></code> and enter the desired hostname for the system</p>
<p>Create <code><mark>/etc/hosts</mark></code> and enter the following</p>
<p><code><mark>127.0.0.1 localhost</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark>::1 localhost</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark>127.0.1.1 localdomain hostname</mark></code></p>
<h3>Install a bootloader</h3>
<p>Install a bootloader capable of loading a Linux system (such as <code><mark>grub</mark></code>)</p>
<p>In the case of <code><mark>grub</mark></code>, install <code><mark>os-prober</mark></code> and <code><mark>efibootmgr</mark></code> (for UEFI systems), then install either <code><mark>grub-bios</mark><code>, <code><mark>grub-uefi</mark></code>, <code><mark>lib32-grub-bios</mark></code>, or <code><mark>lib32-grub-uefi</mark></code>, then run the following commands to install: </p>
<p><i>Warning: Highly customized configurations may cause the bootloader to break. It is recommended to edit </i><code><mark>/etc/make.conf</mark></code><i> before building this package.</i></p>
<p><code><mark># grub-install /dev/sdX (BIOS/MBR)</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark># grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot --bootloader-id=grub (UEFI)</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark>(chroot)# grub-install /dev/sdX (BIOS/MBR)</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark>(chroot)# grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot --bootloader-id=grub (UEFI)</mark></code></p>
<p>Create the GRUB configuration file</p>
<p><code><mark># grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg</mark></code></p>
<p>Once the bootloader has been installed, power off the system.</p>
<p></p>
<p><code><mark>(chroot)# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg</mark></code></p>
<h3>Power off the system</h3>
<p>Exit the chroot environment</p>
<p><code><mark>(chroot)# exit</mark></code></p>
<p>Unmount all drives</p>
<p><code><mark># umount -R /mnt/everest</mark></code></p>
<p>Power off the system</p>
<p><code><mark># poweroff</mark></code></p>
<h2>The End</h2>
<p>Power on the system. If all went well, the GRUB boot screen should appear, followed by a shell prompt.</p>
<p>If using systemd, start NetworkManager and connect to a network</p>
<p><code><mark># systemctl start NetworkManager</mark></code></p>
<p><code><mark># nmtui</mark></code></p>
<p>Congratgulations! Everest has successfully been installed.</p>
<p>Most users will want to configure sound, a graphical environment, or multiple users. See post installation recommendations for details.</p>

<p>A highly flexible, general purpose operating system, built off of the monolithic Linux kernel and Glacier package manager.</p>
<h2>Why Everest?</h2>
<p><strong>Simple: </strong>Everest strives to be simple by design, coming with no pre-installed bloatware, or spyware</p>
<p><strong>Stable: </strong>Everest is designed to be as stable as possible. Adopting a unique approach to package management, update any package whenever you want, or not at all. Plus, major package dependencies are not resolved automatically, reducing the possibility of needing to downgrade a library.</p>
<p><strong>Fast: </strong>Everest compiles packages so they can run as efficiently as possible. Simply define your desired makeflags and you're ready to go.</p>
<p><strong>Fast: </strong>Glacier downloads program source code from the Everest Package Index, then compiles it locally on your system, resulting in an extremely optimized experience. Simply define the makeflags for your system and you're ready to go.</p>
<p><strong>Lightweight: </strong>Everest uses busybox and sysvinit to provide an extremely lightweight system.</p>
<p><strong>Flexible: </strong>Everest supports higly customized installations, to the point where some of them can't even be considered Everest anymore.</p>
