No problem, thanks for your response too. The only difficulty I had with the f123-visual iso install was with the country and timezone selection stuff. I found once a continent was selected hitting escape once backed me out to the controls then I was able to hit the next button. Same thing with the timezone selection. That was one of the easiest thus installs I ever did, and I installed sonar earlier so had earlier experiences with thus.

I haven't been able so far to download a bootable antergos-sonar iso due to iso integrity problems and this was after using --tries=inf and --max-redirect=10000 on the wget line along with --continue.

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 imported since one of its signing keys is no longer valid.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
 probably
 will actually update packages once installed.? For anyone else
 interested
 in trying this distro out if you use English and run a 64-bit processor,
