About Alfred Linux

A real company, a real product, a real kernel, real checksums. Here's who we are, what we've shipped, and how to verify every claim we make.

Who Builds Alfred Linux

Alfred Linux is developed by GoSiteMe Inc., a software company that builds sovereign, privacy-first tools. We are not a hobby project, a weekend fork, or a reskin of Ubuntu with a different wallpaper.

The project is led by Danny William Perez (Commander) — founder of GoSiteMe — with development powered by Alfred, our AI engineering system. Alfred doesn't just chat — it compiles kernels, writes build hooks, hardens security modules, and ships ISOs.

What Makes Alfred Linux Different

Most Linux distros take a base (Debian, Arch, Fedora), change the wallpaper, swap the package manager defaults, and call it a new OS. Alfred Linux is architecturally different:

How to Verify We're Legitimate

Don't trust us — verify us. Here's exactly how:

1. Download and hash the ISO

wget https://alfredlinux.com/downloads/alfred-linux-4.0-rc8-amd64-20260407.iso sha256sum alfred-linux-4.0-rc8-amd64-20260407.iso # Compare with published hash on /releases

2. Boot it (no install required)

# Write to USB sudo dd if=alfred-linux-4.0-rc8-amd64-20260407.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M status=progress # Or use Ventoy, Rufus, or balenaEtcher # Boot → select "Live" → you're in Alfred Linux

3. Verify the kernel

uname -r # Should show: 7.0.0-rc7-alfred cat /proc/cmdline # Should show security params: init_on_alloc=1 pti=on lockdown=integrity ...

4. Verify security modules

alfred-security-status # Full security audit alfred-network-status # Network hardening status alfred-encrypt-status # Disk encryption status systemctl status fail2ban # Intrusion prevention systemctl status apparmor # Mandatory access control systemctl status auditd # Security audit logging

5. Verify applications

alfred-ide # Open VS Code IDE in browser alfred-info # System information meilisearch --version # Search engine kokoro --help # Voice TTS engine
