## How to hack
## How to hack Phyllome OS
Hacking kickstart files is the main way to assemble and configure Phyllome OS, which is RPM-based. Kickstart files are snippets of code which automate the installation of RPM-based Linux distributions.

## Phyllome OS
Phyllome OS is a [Fedora Remix](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Remix) based on [Fedora Server 34](https://getfedora.org/en/server/) designed to leverage hardware-assisted virtualization and VirtIO-based paravirtualization to run modern UEFI-compatible guest operating systems locally.
Phyllome OS is a [Fedora Remix](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Remix) based on [Fedora Server 35](https://getfedora.org/en/server/) designed to leverage hardware-assisted virtualization and VirtIO-based paravirtualization to run modern UEFI-compatible guest operating systems locally.
The goal is to maximize ease-of-use and compatibility. As such, Phyllome OS intends to become the easiest way to virtualize modern operating systems, by integrating pertinent open-source software such as `libvirt`, `qemu-kvm` (and then the `Cloud Hypervisor`) and `virt-manager`.
