DragonOS Guides
DragonOS is highly supported and has many guides and walkthroughs. These are sorted by SDR or specific actions on the DragonOS YouTube Channel.
This channel is best described as a project aimed at making it as easy as possible for someone new to Linux and SDRs to run either a live Linux distro or install Linux and be up and running with not only popular, well-known, and easily installed SDR software, but also more challenging to install and/or compile software. Combined with YouTube videos, it ensures everyone’s on the same page and can follow along.
