General Info

This was mostly inspired by this reddit post (which was further inspired by https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxmint/comments/n9h7b4/amogos_custom_background_mint_x_grey_theme/ which was posted by peek, our graphical designer. cough cough Mutahar). ඞAmogOSඞ is a meme OS based on the hit game Among Us, in the same vein as Hannah Montana Linux, but it's also developed and made to be a highly lightweight operating system that can be used as a desktop OS if one really wanted to, and it's a bit ironic that ඞAmogOSඞ is lighter and less bloated than most mainstream distros (chad ඞAmogOSඞ vs bloated mainstream distro as youtuber TechHut put it). It packs so many features in only 1.6GB that we gave up adding them all to our features list since it was so long. Why spend so much effort on a meme os? Well, mainstream oses suck so I want to dab on them by making a meme os better than their professional os:)

Installation Notes

  • We are not resposible for ANY KIND OF DATA LOSS or any kind of problem not relating to ඞAMOGOSඞ, USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK

  • NOTE: We have both Raspberry Pi and x86_64 builds. Raspberry Pi 32-bit builds will have RPI in their names and PC x86_64 builds will have x64 in their names in their respective releases.

  • For x64 users: It takes like a whole 69420 secs to load the UI from usb boot so be patient!

  • For RPI users: SPAM ESC KEY ON THE KEYBOARD WHEN BOOTING AMOGOS ON AN ACTUAL PI TO FIX BLINKING CURSOR/BOOT ISSUE.

Install

  • Grab install instructions and the download links here on our website: https://www.amogos.studio/install.html.

  • (please note that by downloading AmogOS, you have a severely increased chance of being infected with the deadly ඞamogusඞ and AMOGID-69 virus. Please refer to here for treatment methods).

Testing ඞAmogOSඞ

  • Now you can test out AmogOS online without downloading it at DistroTest: https://distrotest.net/AmogOS/. (note that DistroTest just has high latency, ඞAmogOSඞ actually runs extremely well even on my old 2013 laptop so get rekt Ubuntu)

Support

  • Grey color palette to match Among Us.
  • Custom neofetch logo.
  • MCPI Reborn (It's recommended you use the included gMCPIL launcher to launch the game).
  • Uses Openbox WM and LXDE, allowing you to switch to 2 desktop spaces with the scroll wheel, similar to macOS.
  • among-sus, an open-source among us alternative playable in terminal (use among-sus-server to host a localhost server and among-sus to connect to a server hosted on the current device, or nc <ip on your LAN network> to join a game on your network).
  • DollarSkip, a simple C app to ignore $ signs inputted at the start of a command, for copying commands from online tutorials.
  • ncdu and tldr.
  • Pi-Apps x86 for the x64 build.
  • 69.420% compliance with the ඞSUSඞ specification.

RPI only features, not present on x86_64 build

  • 64-bit kernel enabled by default for speed, as well as to enable Wine support on RPI 3.
  • Preinstalled CommanderPi, piwiz, Box86, Pi Power Tools, pi-apps, Colour Emoji Font, Stacer, legendary launcher (to replace Epic Games Launcher), and a 64-bit container to run aarch64 apps.
  • Wine + box86 preinstalled for x86 windows syscall translation.
  • piKiss and Pi-Apps preinstalled so you can install some games and also A M O N G U S. (Among Us will run at ~5 fps on multiplayer play. It runs rather poorly, but for a game never intended to run on a CPU the size of a thumb with 2 layers of syscall translation (x86 windows -> x86 linux -> arm linux), it's decent. A small resolution is needed for the game to run without poor framerates).
  • You can overclock your RPI with Commander Pi to get slightly more performace.

Notes

  • (RPI version only) You can use vdesktop to test out the OS in a container without any lag and flashing needed on an ARM host.
  • (RPI version only) Default username is "pi" and password is "raspberry".
  • (x86 version only) Default username is "amogos" and password is "amogos".
  • ඞAmogOSඞ is not a custom OS, it's just riced RPi OS/Debian Bullseye for RPI and x64 versions respectively. It doesn't have any custom written source code. You can mount the squashfs .sb file and look at the rootfs yourself
