# Omarchy A An experimental, [Omarchy](https://omarchy.org/)-inspired desktop for Apple A-series devices. Built on Arch Linux ARM, with Omarchy's look and feel reworked for touch. Includes a device-aware CLI and release format for installation, diagnostics, and bringing Omarchy A to more hardware. ## Supported devices | Device | Identifier | Status | | --- | --- | --- | | iPad 6 Wi-Fi | `iPad7,5` / J71b | Experimental; no GPU acceleration | This image uses **tethered boot**: starting Linux after a cold restart requires a host computer running `orchard launch`.

Follow the prompts to select the partition and confirm installation. The CLI downloads and verifies the release, boots recovery, prepares device-specific firmware, installs the desktop, and hands off to the installed system—all in one DFU boot. Keep USB connected until **System ready**. ## Start Linux after a restart Connect the iPad in DFU mode and run: ```sh orchard launch ```

使用方式

通过命令行工具安装和启动，例如使用`orchard install`和`orchard launch`。

4. Choose **Adjust size**, reserve space for Linux, and select the option to create an **unformatted Linux partition**. 5. Wait for **Completed and verified** before restarting. Do not interrupt the operation; see the [resize safety instructions](https://github.com/OrchardLinux/resize-apfs#while-resizing) if status becomes unavailable. ### 4. Install Omarchy A Connect only the target iPad. Enter DFU: hold Home + Power for about 8 seconds, release Power, then keep holding Home for about 10 seconds. The screen should remain black. ```sh orchard install omarchy-a ```

Use a dedicated test device; do not store sensitive data on it. Contributions for additional devices are welcome. See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md). ## Install Use a computer running **Linux or macOS** with Python 3.9+ (including venv/pip), curl, libusb, and OpenSSH installed, a USB data cable, and a supported iPad running iPadOS 16 or later. Allow several GB of free host storage for firmware downloads and extraction.

已知限制

仅支持iPad 6 Wi-Fi，且无GPU加速；使用tethered boot，冷启动后需主机运行`orchard launch`。
