Soplos Linux

Ok! I unfortunately got the error message on both tries of installing 2026.09 and 2026.10, as well as Tyron 26.10.

Each time it makes it to "Install packages." at the end of the install and the error occurs. However, if you're able to see the images below, it shows "Done" on the bottom right-hand corner and "Finish" on the left-hand side.

In case the images don't show up, the error message is:

Installation Failed
Package Manager error
Details: The package manager could not make changes to the installed system.
The command <pre>apt-get -q -y install soplos-welcome</pre> returned error code 100.

Update: I can't be sure if I downloaded Boro 2026.09 from Sourceforge, or 2026.10 from the Soplos website, when I had the issue.

I'm now downloading 2026.10. I'm going to go ahead and try to install both 2026.09 and 2026.10.

I was unable to find the checksum for 2026.09, but 2026.10 checks out and is good for boot.

Also, it's worth mentioning I'm using Ventoy and likely did when the issue occured, if that's anything.

Aboslutely! You're very welcome, Sergi, and thank you for the reply.

1. I downloaded it yesterday, so 10/3/26 for me. 2026.09 version. I did NOT verify the checksum, but I've had that nagging me for a little bit now. I'll certainly do that from now on. Thank you.

(Side note: I needed to redownload it. On Sourceforge, clicking "Download" downloads Tyron.
One must go to the Boros page and navigate to Files and manually select Boros, for download.
Tyron is there within the files and is on top. So, it must be automatically grabbing that one.

2. Real Hardware. On a Dell Latitude 7320, NVMe.

3. I apologize. I attatched the image, or so I thought. I can't so for certain when the error occured, but I believe it was towards the end or at the end of the install.
   

4. Again, I apologize for not being clear. I was referring to other linux distros that have failed during install and by giving it a second go, they'd successfully install.

Extra Credit I'm about to try and install Soplos now and will report back.

Thanks!

Hello! I hopped onto Boro last night and got this installation failed message. I meant to try again as i've encountered installation issues in the past, and a second go would get me through. Anyway, I wanted to bring it to your attention, just in case. Good-looking, solid distro, by the way.
