最近，我在寻求一些最佳的 [基于 Arch 的 Linux 发行版](https://itsfoss.com/arch-based-linux-distros/)。


在浏览过我们过去的报道，并进行了一番搜索之后，我找到了一些颇为出色的发行版。


其中 [Archcraft](https://news.itsfoss.com/archcraft/) 这款发行版让我眼前一亮，它极具用户友好性。我希望能有更多类似 Archcraft 的发行版，幸运的是，在几天前，我发现了 **Parch Linux**。


一起来看看这个引人入胜的发行版，它“力图做到美观、易用、轻量、快捷且稳定”。


### Parch Linux：概述 ⭐


![](/data/attachment/album/202401/17/192231gsz8gjke3zk1j4vg.jpg)


[Parch Linux](https://parchlinux.com/) 是 **一款面向 Linux 新手和经验者的开源轻量级发行版**。它以 Arch Linux 为基础，为用户提供了清新的体验。


一些 **关键特点** 包括：


* 直观的用户界面
* 采用滚动更新机制
* 集成 pacman 包管理器
* 少量的定制以增强用户体验


#### 初体验 ?‍?


我在 [虚拟机](https://itsfoss.com/virtual-machine/) 上尝试安装了 **Parch GNOME** 版本，整个过程十分简单明了。点击 “欢迎” 应用程序的一键“安装 Parch”按钮即可启动 [Calamares 安装程序](https://calamares.io/)。

尽管外观和感觉有所不同，但此次的安装体验，确是你能从 Calamares 那里预期的。


![](/data/attachment/album/202401/17/192232vmoy0ib0efb1ffwx.jpg)


我依次设置了时区、键盘布局，然后开始设置用户，输入常见的信息，如用户名、密码、计算机的名称等。


![](/data/attachment/album/202401/17/192233gvx69vuxuz1ql9mq.jpg)


熟悉的 **磁盘分区** 步骤也随之而来，诸如 *ext4* 、 *btrfs* 、 *jfs* 、 *xfs* 、 *f2fs* 和 *reiser* 等文件系统皆在选项之中。


![](/data/attachment/album/202401/17/192234x63jl9998j93vgmb.jpg)


所有的设置就位后，安装程序开始运行，屏幕底部出现了进度条，屏幕中心处是 Parch Linux 的徽标。

安装完成后，系统重新启动到了这个美丽的桌面，GNOME 45.1 的全新工作区切换器和更新后的快速设置菜单等新功能一览无余。


![](/data/attachment/album/202401/17/192235icjly4mbmsbzlc2b.jpg)


我在想还有没有其他的壁纸。你可以在一些带有 Parch Linux 徽标的壁纸中找到一些有趣的选择。


不忘记，停靠栏已经对齐到了屏幕的左侧。


![](/data/attachment/album/202401/17/192236byy5862w2j5ui85i.jpg)


我还发现 Parch Linux 提供了一套 **实用的应用程序**，包含诸如 [GParted](https://itsfoss.com/gparted/)、[KeePassXC](https://itsfoss.com/keepassxc/)、Vim，以及 GNOME 的一些常见应用，比如图像浏览、视频播放、地图查看等。


![](/data/attachment/album/202401/17/192236xdy44w8zhuy46wuu.jpg)


这个发行版内置了最新的核心包 Pacman 6.0.2，使用 `pacman -Syu` 命令即可获取最新的包。


然后，我注意到了与默认 GNOME 终端不同的终端模拟器。


![](/data/attachment/album/202401/17/192237jtt5byjyme8taeqe.jpg)


Parch Linux 采用了 [Blackbox](https://itsfoss.com/blackbox-terminal/) 终端，这是一个精致的 GTK4 终端，用于满足喜欢极简终端模拟器的用户。


总的来说，我喜欢 Parch Linux 所提供的一切。


当然，在任何基于 Arch 的发行版上，你都可以自定义所有的东西。


但我认为，Parch Linux 在 Arch Linux 的基础上打造出更简单的用户体验，并且刻意做了一些定制，这对新的 Linux 用户来说，是有益的。


### ? 下载 Parch Linux


尽管我试验的是 GNOME 版本，但还有其他更多版本可供选择。比如 **Parch KDE**、**Parch XFCE**、**Parch Cinnamon** 等。


所以，如果你要获取 Parch Linux 的任何版本，你可以直接访问其 [官方网站](https://parchlinux.com/download) 或者 [FOSS Torrents 页面](https://fosstorrents.com/distributions/parch-linux/)。

Recently, I was wondering what are some of the [best Arch-based Linux distros](https://itsfoss.com/arch-based-linux-distros/?ref=news.itsfoss.com)?

After going through our past coverage and searching around, I did find some cool ones.

One of those distros was [Archcraft](https://news.itsfoss.com/archcraft/), which pleasantly surprised me with its user-friendly nature, and I was thinking we needed more Arch-based distros like that. Luckily, a few days back, I was made aware of **Parch Linux**.

So, join me as I take you through this intriguing distro that “*tries to be pretty, easy to use, light, fast and stable*”.

## Parch Linux: Overview ⭐

![a screenshot of parch linux with a system details page and neofetch output open](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2024/01/Parched_Linux_a.jpg)

[Parch Linux](https://parchlinux.com/?ref=news.itsfoss.com) is** an open-source, lightweight Linux distribution** aimed towards both beginners and experienced Linux users alike. It** uses Arch Linux as a strong base** to provide a clean user experience.

Some **key highlights** include:

**Intuitive User Interface****Follows a Rolling-Release Cycle****Integrates pacman package manager****A bit of customization for enhanced user experience**

### Initial Impressions 👨💻

I tried the **Parch GNOME** variant on a [virtual machine](https://itsfoss.com/virtual-machine/?ref=news.itsfoss.com). The installation process was pretty straightforward, as the welcome app had the “Install Parch” button that started up the [Calamares installer](https://calamares.io/?ref=news.itsfoss.com).

The installation experience is what you expect from Calamares, albeit with a different look and feel to it.

![a screenshot of parch linux calamares installer](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2024/01/Parched_Linux_c.jpg)

I **set the timezone**,** the keyboard layout**, then moved on to** set up the user** with the usual information such as the username, password, name of the computer, and so on.

![a screenshot of parch linux calamares installer](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2024/01/Parched_Linux_f.jpg)

The **disk partitioning** was familiar too, with file system options such as *ext4*, *btrfs*,* jfs*, *xfs*, *f2fs*, and *reiser*.

![a screenshot of parch linux calamares installer](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2024/01/Parched_Linux_g.jpg)

After everything was set, the installation began with a helpful progress bar at the bottom and a greeting with the Parch Linux logo in the center.

Post installation, the system rebooted into this **beautiful-looking desktop that was running GNOME 45.1** in all its glory, with the new workspace switcher and the updated quick settings menu, among other nuances.

I was curious what other wallpapers were offered. You can find some interesting choices among ones with the Parch Linux logo (if you like to show off what you're using).

Not to forget, the dock bar comes aligned to the left of the screen.

![a screenshot of parch linux wallpapers](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2024/01/Parched_Linux_l.jpg)

I also noticed that Parch Linux has **a decent application suite **with important applications such as [GParted](https://itsfoss.com/gparted/?ref=news.itsfoss.com), [KeePassXC](https://itsfoss.com/keepassxc/?ref=news.itsfoss.com), Vim, and the usual GNOME apps for image viewing, video playing, checking maps etc.

The distro packs in Pacman 6.0.2, the latest core package. Furthermore, I also tried running *pacman -Syu* to get the latest packages.

That's when I noticed the different terminal emulator (not the default GNOME terminal).

![a screenshot of parch linux pacman details](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2024/01/Parched_Linux_k.jpg)

Parch Linux features the [Blackbox](https://itsfoss.com/blackbox-terminal/?ref=news.itsfoss.com) terminal, which is **an aesthetically pleasing GTK4 terminal** that appeals to those who prefer a minimal terminal emulator.

Overall, **I liked what Parch Linux had to offer**.

Sure, you can customize these things for yourself on any Arch distribution.

However, I believe Parch Linux manages to provide a simpler user experience on top of Arch Linux, with a pinch of customization. And, this is a good thing for new Linux users (*if you want the adventure to try new distros*).
