How to install JingOS?
STEP 1: Burn ISO file to USB disk or DVD
Create a bootable USB stick on Ubuntu with Startup Disk Creator.
If you are using other platforms, please refer to How to Create a bootable Ubuntu USB. This guide will help you create Bootable Ubuntu USB on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
STEP 2: Boot JingOS
- Insert the USB driver or DVD into the device
- Start your device. If the device boots from USB or DVD by default, you will see the GRUB menu:
-In GRUB options, select “JingOS” to start the system - If the device does not boot to this interface, you need to specify the boot via USB or DVD in the boot menu; or adjust the boot sequence of the BIOS and boot sequence via USB driver or DVD first. Adjust the boot device as follows:
For most x86 devices, press F12 when booting to bring up the boot menu, choose boot from USB or DVD
Or adjust the boot device sequence in the BIOS configuration, and boot from the device with JingOS first.
Surface devices can call up the UEFI configuration by holding the volume up key when powering on your device.
Surface users need to disable Secure Boot by changing the Secure Boot configuration in Security to None.
Restart your device after configuration.
Install JingOS on your device
You can also install JingOS on the device by Calamares in LiveCD.
STEP 1: Run JingOS in LiveCD, open the Konsole program, and run:
sudo -E calamares
STEP 2: Follow the instructions to configure and complete the installation process
STEP 3 (Only for Surface users)
- Surface devices require specific kernels and drivers to use touch screen
- Surface users need to install JingOS on the device first, Surface Linux kernel cannot be installed in LiveCD, so touch cannot be used in LiveCD mode
- After completing the system installation, install the specified surface kernel and driver in JingOS
Open Konsole, execute surface kernel and driver installation script
$ linux_surface_install.sh
- Note: To use the Linux-surface kernel, you need to disable secure boot in UEFI
Some FAQ’s related to installtion of JingOS

What will be the screen resolution after the installation of JingOS?
The early stage of JingOS UI is mainly optimized for 2052 * 1368, so if you want to get the best experience, you need to set the resolution to 2052 * 1368. Or choose a resolution that is similar to 2052 * 1368 (for example, 1920 * 1200)
How to install JingOS on a virtual machine?
The steps of installing JingOS on a virtual machine is pretty similar to installing any OS X. The steps are as follows-
- Create a new virtual machine.
- Add the JingOS ISO file to the virtual machine.
- The rest of the steps of installing JingOS are fundamental.
- To use the virtual machine experience, you need to adjust the display resolution. If the virtual machine does not support 20521368, you can adjust it to 19201200 or install
Upgrading to El Capitan
You can upgrade to El Capitan from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. El Capitan can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to El Capitan
To upgrade to El Capitan you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download El Capitan from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. El Capitan is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X El Capitan
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
Can't Install El Capitan
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.

Note that upgrading to El Capitan is quite possible from Snow Leopard.l Please be sure your model is included in the above and that your computer meets the installation requirements.
If you need to reinstall El Capitan then try:
Reinstall El Capitan Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears.
Cannot Install El Capitan
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the indented Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list. Click on the First Aid button in the toolbar. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless and more reliable.
If you cannot do the above, then you need to reinstall Snow Leopard and try again:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say 'Verified' then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is 'Verified' then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
Cannot Install Os X El Capitan
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Cannot Install El Capitan No Package
