# 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.*
|
|
|
|
*What is Phyllome OS? [Phyllome OS](https://phyllo.me/) is an operating system that makes it easier to run various guest systems locally using [off-the-shelf hardware](https://wiki.phyllo.me/deploy/prepare). If you want to learn more about it, its goal and the context around it, have a look at the [white-paper](https://files.phyllo.me/s/oYwfxYpZcbppwr6).*
|
|
|
|
> *Phyllome refers to the "foliar part of a plant; any organ homologous with a leaf, or [any organ] produced by metamorphosis of a leaf"* [^1]

### Go further
|
|
|
|
#### Guest OS
|
|
|
|
*Although Phyllome OS thrives to pick good defaults that will work for many guest operating systems, further optimizations may be needed depending on the system you wish to use.*
|
|
|
|
* [Install a Linux guest](/gofurther/install-guest) system using an ISO file
|
|
* [Unattended deployment of a RPM-based guest](/gofurther/virt-install) using a kickstart file
|
|
* [Install a Windows guest](/gofurther/install-windows-guest) system using an ISO file
|
|
* ...and [**more**](https://wiki.phyllo.me/en/gofurther)
|
|
|
|
*This section is meant to introduce the execution of particular taks on Phyllome OS. Some of these tasks will be rendered obsolete with newer Phyllome OS versions.*
|
|
|
|
#### Around Phyllome OS
|
|
|
|
* [Perform a few checks](/gofurther/checks) on Phyllome OS
|
|
* [Encrypt](/gofurther/encrypt) virtual disk images using filesystem-level encryption
|
|
* [Install and use the Cloud Hypervisor](/gofurther/cloud-hypervisor) to create a virtual machine
