14 DAY TRIAL // Another month, another installation medium of the popular and acclaimed Arch Linux operating system has been released. Arch Linux 2016.10.01 arrives on the first day of October with many goodies.
As you might have guessed already, Arch Linux 2016.10.01 is the refreshed or respined ISO image of the lightweight and highly customizable GNU/Linux distribution, designed for newcomers who want to install Arch Linux for the first time or those who plan on reinstalling their OS due to various reasons or deploy it on new machines.
Therefore, the Arch Linux 2016.10.01 ISO image will save them a lot of time. Why? Because it contains up-to-date core components, namely all the packages that have been released on the stable software repositories of the operating system during the month of September 2016, including the Linux 4.7.5 kernel.
Existing users don't need to download anything
Of course, this means that the Arch Linux 2016.10.01 ISO image has not been released for existing users running a healthy Arch Linux installation to update their systems. To do that, all you have to do is run the "sudo pacman -Syu" command in a terminal emulator and install all the available updates.
If you want to install Arch Linux, you need to download the Arch Linux 2016.10.01 ISO image right now from the operating system's website, or via ours by clicking the highlighted link above. As always, this is a dual-arch image that can be booted on both 64- or 32-bit computers.
Torrent and Magnet links are also available on the Arch Linux download page (link above). A complete beginner's guide on how to install the Arch Linux operating system is available for your reading pleasure right here on this space. See you again next month for another respin image of one of the most powerful Linux distros.
