ZDNET reviews Shadowfetch, a very early-stage Debian-based Linux distribution designed as a local AI workstation that simplifies installing local LLMs and agents (via Ollama) and offers selectable setup profiles (Creative, Developer, Gaming, Office, Local AI lab, etc.). The reviewer found the AI tools responsive and the preinstalled app selections useful but experienced repeated installer failures and recommends running the distro from a live session until installation issues are resolved.
