Orneos OS

A computer that is already Orneos.

Orneos OS is the computer's operating system: mail, files, calendar and search with the same account as the cloud. It is for people comfortable installing a system. The cloud itself still works from any device.

How it works

  1. An Orneos account

    The same one as the cloud. The computer signs in to it at the first start.

  2. Install from the image

    You download the installer on this page, boot it, choose the language and the disk, then confirm. It needs EFI boot, 4 GB of memory and 40 GB of disk.

  3. The first start

    You create the computer account, then Orneos Connect opens the Orneos sign-in, including two-factor authentication.

  4. No reinstall after that

    Updates prepare themselves and apply at the next restart. The previous version stays in the boot menu.

Frequently asked questions

Do I reinstall for updates?

No. They prepare on their own and apply at the next restart. Discover shows them too. Apps you add later through Discover update separately.

Who is Orneos OS for?

People comfortable installing an operating system. The Orneos cloud is used from a browser, a phone or an existing computer, without changing the system.

Is this a deeply modified Fedora?

No. It is Fedora Kinoite, with Orneos looks, settings and account sign-in added. It is not a fork: Fedora updates keep coming.

What if an update is not right?

The previous version stays in the boot menu. You restart onto it, without reinstalling.
