How to Install Runtu KDE Linux Desktop Environment


Linux is a truly modular operating system. For example, you have the freedom to not only change the desktop wallpaper but the entire desktop environment. Other operating systems such as Windows or macOS come with a preset desktop system that you cannot change.

Runtu is a Russian desktop Linux distribution based on Ubuntu's LTS (long-ter support) releases. It features full support for Russian and a variety of extra applications, tools and media codecs. There are two separate editions that are produced with a varying degree of frequency; the "Xfce" edition tend to get more attention while the "Lite" edition, featuring the LXDE desktop, is also released and updated from time to time.

You need an ISO image of Runtu KDE Linux. You can Download it from the Official Runtu KDE Linux download page. You also need a 8GB USB drive which will be used as a bootable installation medium.

To install Runtu KDE Linux, you need to write your downloaded ISO to a USB stick to create the installation media. This is not the same as copying the ISO, and requires some bespoke software.
