Installed system can be smoothly upgraded to future Debian releases while retaining its unique SpiralLinux configuration

Great effort has been expended in polishing the SpiralLinux default configuration for all the major desktop environments using the packages and mechanisms that Debian itself provides. So in effect, a SpiralLinux installation is actually a legitimate Debian installation that can be infinitely upgraded from the official Debian repositories while retaining its unique SpiralLinux configuration.

** Important: Rufus, LinuxLive USB Creator (LiLi), Ventoy, and Unetbootin are NOT recommended by SpiralLinux for creating the bootable USB device due to many reported issues

ZRAM in Spiral Linux (Debian):

/etc/default/zramswap

OR: SIZE=MBs

Another solid OS based on Debian. Not a lot of branding either, so on the surface at least it looks great.

Thanks for watching. Let me know if you have tried Spiral Linux..
