The image can be burned to a CD, mounted as an ISO file, or be directly written to a USB stick using a utility like `dd`. It is intended for new installations only; an existing Arch Linux system can always be updated with `pacman -Syu`.
If you are an existing Arch user, there is no need to download a new ISO to update your existing system. You may be looking for an updated mirrorlist instead.
If you can spare the bytes, please leave the client open after your download is finished, so you can seed it back to others. A web-seed capable client is recommended for fastest download speeds.
If you have a wired connection, you can boot the latest release directly over the network.
We provide daily snapshot ISOs. Those are largely untested, but may be more up to date than the releases.
In addition to the BitTorrent links above, install images can also be downloaded via HTTP from the mirror sites listed below. Please ensure the download image matches the checksum from the md5sums.txt or sha1sums.txt file in the same directory as the image.
File integrity checksums for the latest releases can be found below:
