Hi everyone,
I am responsible for the F123 Visual distro and I want to apologize for
the recent difficulties people have had with its installation. We have
started moving towards a text-only script-based installation process, so
as to no longer depend on graphical installers.
The text-based installation process will be as automatic as possible,
and the first version of the script can be obtained here:
https://github.com/f123/f123e-iso-script
Once this process includes Mate, we will create an ISO and make it
available. For now, it does not yet include Mate, so it is best used
only by more experienced users.
Our thanks goes to Mike Ray, for his work on this installation script.
We also thank Kyle Brouhard and all contributors to Talking Arch for the
inspiration and code. Having said that, this remains merely the first
version (and strictly alpha), so contributions are welcome and beginners
should avoid this route for now.
Until recently, our old ISO could be installed with a simple and lengthy
update process, as Arch is a rolling distro, but given recent crypto key
difficulties, we will take the ISO down until an updated version is
available.
Thank you for your patience with this matter and apologies for any
inconvenience,
Fernando

Though this one is installable, it's not possible to install any
additional software on it or update any existing software due to many
gpg key issues. Some keys were revoked and the manjaro-keyring can't
be imported since one of its signing keys is no longer valid. I don't
know about the archlinux-keyring I think I'll try updating that one
separately and see if that at least will work.

I found a location for the iso and this one isn't experimental so

will actually update packages once installed.? For anyone else
