What is Parabola?
Parabola is a Free Software and Free Culture project aiming to
provide a
fully Free as in freedom GNU/Linux distribution called Parabola
GNU/Linux-libre. It is based on the packages of the Arch (the
GNU/Linux
distribution) and possibly other Arch-based systems, with packages
optimized for i686, x86_64, and armv7h CPUs. Parabola aims to keep
its
package and management tools simple. The primary goal is to give
the
user complete control over their system with 100% Free Software
and Free
Culture. Parabola GNU/Linux-libre is listed by the Free Software
Foundation as a fully Free Software distribution.
Development is focused on a balance of simplicity, elegance,
code-correctness and bleeding edge Free Software.
Its lightweight and simple design makes it easy to extend and mold
into
whatever kind of system you're building.
You can find us on #parabola or mailing list.
General documentation
The Installation Guide will walk you through the process of
