Do you know how to make the kde version? meaning is there a small ISO without WM that can be download, then add KDE? is just one iso with gnome. I tried so hard to like Gnome, but I just don't like how it interacts with the user. How I have to change stuff, etc...

I was unable to install AerynOS. I checked my downloads SHASUM and tried to install it with Ventoy. The ISO just sat and looked at me for a good few minutes, then printed the first thing that one usually sees, the normal error messages, followed by the installer's normal text output. That continued until it couldn't find "sudo" and went into an endless loop. The screen told me to stop the installer, but didn't say how. My current distro (Mageia) would have decided whether the problem was with Grub2 or Dracut, and would have dropped me to the appropriate shell prompt.
So I tried to install from a USB drive. Although the stick had been previously blanked and formatted to Fat32, the screen kept telling me that I was installing Mageia.
At that point, I gave up trying. Even for an alpha release, there were too many basic errors.
