We are at the beginning of May and as usual, a new version of the Arch Linux distro is launched, one of the operating systems based on the classic penguin that stands out for its versatility and customization capacity but is not so recommended for the user "First-time" on Linux systems.

Arch Linux uses a "rolling release" model

Every month a new version of Arch Linux is released where a “rolling release” roadmap is followed, an update system that differs from what is usually customary in other more popular distros. This translates into a system that is updated gradually every month without having to wait too long without news, this type of periodic updates have already been implemented in other distros such as Manjaro, Kali Linux and Gentoo.

We recommend reading how to update Ubuntu 14.04 LTS to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

In this new update of Arch Linux 2016.05.01 we have chosen to have the latest Kernel 4.5.1 and above all to close the security breach and the classic bug fixes that appear. If you are an Arch Linux user, you can update the operating system right now by entering the command sudo pacman -Syu so that the system automatically updates to the latest available version, in this case 2016.05.01.

Finally, if you have used other more popular distros such as OpenSUSE, Ubuntu or Fedora, just to name a few, and you are curious to try Arch Linux, on its official page you can find the ISO to be able to install it on your computer, it only weighs 734MB.
