What is Parabola?
Parabola is a Free Software and Free Culture project aiming to provide a
fully Free as in freedom GNU/Linux distribution called Parabola
GNU/Linux-libre. It is based on the packages of the Arch (the GNU/Linux
distribution) and possibly other Arch-based systems, with packages
optimized for i686, x86_64, and armv7h CPUs. Parabola aims to keep its
package and management tools simple. The primary goal is to give the
user complete control over their system with 100% Free Software and Free
Culture. Parabola GNU/Linux-libre is listed by the Free Software
Foundation as a fully Free Software distribution.
Development is focused on a balance of simplicity, elegance,
code-correctness and bleeding edge Free Software.
Its lightweight and simple design makes it easy to extend and mold into
whatever kind of system you're building.
You can find us on #parabola or mailing list.

The Installation Guide will walk you through the process of downloading

If you are running the GNU/Linux distribution of Arch, migrating to
Parabola GNU/Linux-libre is as simple as reconfiguring pacman to use its
repositories. See the Migration guides for x86 and ARM v7 architectures
for instructions.
Be sure to take a look at the Parabola Social Contract, it guides us in
all we do.
