Phyllome OS wiki
Welcome to the Phyllome OS wiki!
In this wiki, you will find guides about how to install, use and hack Phyllome OS, as well as more general information about open-source virtualization and the project behind this specialized OS.
Phyllome OS is an operating system that makes it easier to run various guest systems locally using off-the-shelf hardware. If you want to learn more about it, its goal and the context around it, have a look at the white-paper.
