UIL VM Manager → Writer Empfohlen

Reads the stick back to verify the write, shows progress and ejects the device safely.

Linux

sudo dd if=takhios-community-server.uil.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4M status=progress

macOS

Find the device with diskutil list, unmount it, then write to the raw device — it is much faster.

diskutil list
diskutil unmountDisk /dev/diskN
sudo dd if=takhios-community-server.uil.img of=/dev/rdiskN bs=4M status=progress

Windows

Rufus (choose DD mode) or balenaEtcher — third-party tools.

Interne Festplatte

Same as the USB command, pointing at the internal disk (for example /dev/nvme0n1). Warning: this erases that disk.

VPS

Use the Netzwerkinstaller (ISO) disc on the download page — there is no separate VPS download.

Neu starten, den USB wählen und Live Desktop oder Installer takhiOS wählen.

•a clean machine to build on — services, containers, a web stack, your own tooling — on a VPS or an old box.
•you administer it over SSH and want sensible security defaults without configuring them: key-only SSH, no root password login, firewall open only for SSH, automatic security updates, and a serial console.

•you want a graphical desktop — install Desktop, Xfce or KDE instead.
•you need a graphical installer session — use the desktop or Xfce image, or the net-install disc.

•add your SSH public key before relying on remote access; root password login over SSH is refused by design.
•security updates are installed automatically; a reboot waits while a transfer is running and retries later rather than interrupting work.
•the same Resize storage boot entry grows the root if you did not use the whole disk.

Die Desktop-Beschreibungen sind derzeit auf Englisch.

What it is:: no desktop at all — a text console on serial (ttyS0) and over SSH. Nothing is drawn, nothing idles in a graphical session.
Who it suits:: servers, VPS machines and boxes you administer remotely.
First minutes:: set up SSH keys before you depend on remote access; on a server image the root password does not allow SSH login.
Expect:: a boot log instead of a splash, and the smallest footprint of any tier (~512 MiB recommended, guidance).
