# HoloISO
SteamOS 3 (Holo) archiso configuration.
***Yes, Gabe. SteamOS functions well on a toaster.***
This project attempts to bring Steam Deck's Holo OS into a generic, installable format and replicate close-to-official SteamOS experience.
This project attempts to bring the Steam Deck's Holo OS into a generic, installable format, and provide a close-to-official SteamOS experience.
Upon booting, you'll be greeted with Steam Deck's OOBE screen, from where you'll connect to your network and login to Steam account, from there, you can exit to KDE Plasma seamlessly by choosing `Switch to desktop` in power menu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smfwna2iHho
Q1:
- ***Is this official?***
- The code, and packages are straight from Valve with zero possible edits. And ISO is being built on official Steam Deck recovery image running inside QEMU instance.
**Common Questions**
Q2:
- ***The ISO didn't boot for me, any solution?***
- Currently, ISO only boots if flashed using [BalenaEtcher](https://www.balena.io/etcher/), [RosaImageWriter](http://wiki.rosalab.ru/en/index.php/ROSA_ImageWriter), [Fedora Media Writer](https://getfedora.org/en/workstation/download/), DD with 4MB block size or [Rufus](https://rufus.ie) with DD mode.

Known issues:
- NVIDIA GPUs are stuck on black screen or `Triggering uevents`. Solution: Boot with `nomodeset=1` and install proprietary drivers https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA. Keep in mind, that Steam Deck session won't work for now, delete `/etc/sddm.conf.d/autologin.conf` to avoid booting into black screen with infinite crash.
- Intel GPUs/iGPUs require Gamescope and MESA downgrade in order to boot into Steam Deck session. Refer to https://gist.github.com/drraccoony/8a8d0a9e3dfde9fafd3e374e418d2935 for further guidance.
