Yes, it's that time of the month again when we have the great pleasure of informing you about the immediate availability for download of a new installation media for the lightweight and acclaimed Arch Linux operating system.

The time has come for a new Arch Linux ISO image to surface on the Web, and so we're announcing the release of Arch Linux 2015.11.01, which brings all the updated software and security patches that were provided during the month that passed.

The new Arch Linux 2015.11.01 ISO image has been made available for new users who want to install the Arch Linux operating system on their computers, as well as for existing Arch Linux users who want to make a fresh install.

What's new in Arch Linux 2015.11.01? Well, the installation media includes Linux kernel 4.2.5 and all the updates released during the month of October 2015, which means that existing users don't need to download the ISO image to keep their systems up to date.

If you want to always have the latest updates and security patches on your Arch Linux installation, you should simply run the "sudo pacman -Syu" command from time to time in a terminal emulator app.

Arch Linux is one of the world's most customizable and lightweight Linux kernel-based operating systems. It follows a rolling-release model, as well as the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) principle.

You can download Arch Linux 2015.11.01 right now via Softpedia or directly from the official website of the operating system, whichever suits you best. Please note that the OS is distributed as a dual-arch ISO image, supporting both 64-bit and 32-bit platforms.
