every Arctic Linux image, newest first, and what changed in each
Older releases were pulled from this
list - they claimed a maturity the distro was not at. This is A1 TESTING:
the distro is being put together faster than it can be verified, and the
version label says so honestly instead of pretending otherwise.

x86_64 · 696 MiB · live image and installer
a real install could still behave like the live image: the first-login greeting could tell you to run arctic-install again, wifi-connect could report "no networks found" against real hardware in range, and kernel-module coldplug could take the full ~30s the live ISO does not have
all three were the same bug: arctic-base and alpm bootstrap through a separate packaging step that reads the source tree directly, not the normal recipe pipeline the live ISO build already used - so a fix could land on the live ISO and never reach a real arctic-install target if that separate step was not rerun since
rebuilt and republished from the current source tree - a fresh install now gets the same rc.boot, wifi-connect, and first-boot state the live ISO already has
wifi has some minor issues in this release but will be fixed in the next
