Today we’re happy to announce the release of Cnchi 0.14, the latest and greatest stable version of the Antergos Installer. Before we get into the details about Cnchi 0.14, I thought it would be fun to take a look at some stats on Antergos Installations performed with the previous stable series, Cnchi 0.12.

Disclaimer: The following stats are estimates only. Though we made every effort to get as close to the actual numbers as possible, our calculations were in no way scientific. This is just for fun, okay? Good

The most notable change in Cnchi 0.14 is beta support for ZFS (in Automatic Installation Mode). It is now possible to install Antergos with ZFS as your chosen filesystem. You simply tell Cnchi which drive to use and it will take care of formatting the drive and configuring ZFS for you. ZFS can be great and is suitable for many use-cases. However, in order to take full advantage of the features provided by ZFS, you will need to take time to do some research and learn about it. We do not recommend using ZFS if you are a beginner and/or don’t have time to learn how it works.

In addition to ZFS support, Cnchi 0.14 includes a ton of bug fixes, tweaks, and other improvements. You can see the full change log at the bottom of this post, but here’s a quick overview of the Cnchi 0.14 Development Cycle.
