Download LainOS ISO from releases

Burn the .iso to USB/DVD with a tool like Balena Etcher.

Check your BIOS, UEFI must be ON and Secure Boot OFF(Libreboot and Coreboot compatible also).

Boot the system using your USB/DVD, once you are on the user log in select Openbox on the top left button (Calamares only works in Openbox), login with
user:liveuser and password:(no password) to enter the Openbox live installation environment. You DO need an internet connection. Either use an ethernet cable or use wifi and restart the installer by right clicking, and selecting System>Install System.
Post installation:
-Issue the command sudo pacman -Syyu in the terminal to update the package databases and system(and sudo pacman -Syu to update every time thereafter), then issue nano to activate LazyVim, let it update, followed by Shift+U to force update LazyVim.
