# [Manjaro Linux JP](https://sourceforge.net/projects/manjaro-jp/)
## Japanese language support for [Manjaro Linux](https://manjaro.org/)
The default includes support for Japanese input and display, including the live environment.
[kernel-6.3 series(stable)](https://kernel.org/).
We plan to provide three types of official environments: KDE, Xfce, and GNOME.
The distribution files include ISO and some package files.
Please start from a USB memory or SSD disk, etc.
Starting from a USB memory may be easier with [Ventoy](https://ventoy.net/).
It is recommended to format the first partition as ext4 during the introduction of Ventoy.
### Main Features
The Linux kernel is adopted with the latest version as much as possible.
Clang is used for kernel building.
Japanese input (fcitx5-mozc) and Japanese font are standardly installed.
The standard browser is either the flatpak version of [Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/ja/firefox/browsers/) or [Floorp](https://floorp.ablaze.one/).
Flatpak version of [LibreOffice](https://www.libreoffice.org) is standardly installed as an office software.
The live environment & installation ISO is published at the following distribution site.
Please feel free to try it out.
##### Notes
1. Does not support Secure Boot
It is not supported, so please disable Secure Boot in BIOS settings.
(If you want secure boot support, Ubuntu is faster. There are multiple desktop environments provided in [Ubuntu flavours](https://ubuntu.com/desktop/flavours).)
2. If the installer screen disappears during installation
In many cases, it can be avoided by setting the swap partition manually.
If the swap partition is /dev/sdX, try to manually enable swap with the following command.
```
sudo mkswap /dev/sdX
sudo swapon /dev/sdX
```
```
# If swap is not enabled, use lsblk to examine the device and enable the swap partition.
[[ $(swapon --show) == "" ]] && SWAP=$(lsblk -l -f -n -p | awk '{if ($2=="swap") print $1}') && ( sudo swapon $SWAP || (sudo mkswap $SWAP && sudo swapon $SWAP) )
```
Also, specify the target that is excluded from OOM killer (force termination) with the following command.
```
pidof -xw Xwayland calamares_polkit|xargs -n1 sudo choom -n -1000 -p
pidof -xw gnome-shell gnome-session-binary xdg-desktop-portal-gnome gdm gjs gvfsd-fuse udisksd | xargs -n1 sudo choom -n -1000 -p
```
##### Addition: 2023-02-11
In the latest version (2023-02-11~) of [Manjaro-JP](https://sourceforge.net/projects/manjaro-jp/), the above measures have been added.
Additionally, the installer has been modified to add a process to enable the swap partition during installation.
Feedback has already been provided to [Calamares](https://github.com/calamares/calamares/pull/2102/commits/79d796a437ad039745147c62a652035d4cd882fe).
##### Addition: 2023-02-27
The above feedback indicates that swap may not be enabled depending on how the partition is configured.
Therefore, as an additional measure, the use of zram-generator has been added.

Thank you for the valuable storage.
It is distributed in the above three places.
[MEGA Storage](https://mega.nz/folder/YOVmSaxD#JUuILxlHAM9bdyx3DKLD0A") is recommended as you can upload files larger than 4G.
If you want to download from MEGA Storage using the command line, megatools is useful.

### Memo
##### Changes in manjaro-tools-iso
1. The source of the packages used in buildiso is set to the first line of the mirrorlist as the standard.
By default, the mirrorlist is not loaded and the EU server is used.
2. To prioritize inclusion of packages that I have prepared, the priority of the repository specified in user-repos.conf has been given priority.
Mainly to include the latest version of the kernel.
3. Calamares Installer Adjustments
At the time of starting the installer, if a swap partition exists, the swap has been enabled.
Because the mount may be removed during installation, the process to re-enable the swap partition has been added before the copying of the installation files begins.
In addition, by specifying programs that are not subject to OOM killer, which is a function to forcibly terminate a program by the kernel under high loads, the installation has been adjusted so that it does not forcibly terminate.

Note: As a reference, an additional note.
If you have a PC with Linux installed, you can also create a dual-boot environment with (no official support) ChromeOS, as long as you have some knowledge.
This is for those who are interested.
