1 · Download the image

The next Cameo prerelease is v0.2.0-beta.4. A matching ISO still needs to be built and qualified; the newest public ISO is v0.1.0-beta.2 Lite. Use the release list so a source version is never mistaken for a verified image.

Standalone harness

Next beta: v0.2.0-beta.2. Needs a model — Ollama, Anthropic, Gemini, Groq, or a running Cameo box. Matching standalone artifacts are being rebuilt; no mislabeled binary is offered here. A Windows paired-control reward-eval ran on 2026-09-08 against gemini-3.6-flash; both arms stopped on token-budget and tool-calling failures before 8/8, so that run is retained evidence, not a capability score.

2 · Flash a USB

Windows: Rufus in DD Image mode (ISO mode often will not boot), or Etcher. Linux/macOS: Etcher, or:

sudo dd if=cameo-*.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M status=progress oflag=sync

3 · Plug it in, set an account

Disable Secure Boot (or the stick is ignored and Windows boots). Put the USB in the AMD machine. Install Cameo to disk is already the default entry. It shows the detected GPU and tier, then asks for:

which disk to erase admin username admin password

Nothing is downloaded. The installer copies the live image onto that disk, writes a console key, and enables cameod. Then reboot and pull the USB.

4 · Play, offline

From a laptop or phone on the same LAN (plug the box into Ethernet if it has a port), open the URL printed after login — http://cameo.local:9090 or the IP. Enter the key. Start qwen2.5-0.5b (smoke test, already on disk). Chatting never phones home. Extra GGUFs: drop them in /var/lib/cameo/models.

Cameo Mesh: that’s when you connect Wi-Fi

A single box does not need Wi-Fi. Cameo Link joins it to a request-level pool; Mesh does not combine VRAM or shard one inference across machines.

Ethernet — plug in, DHCP is automatic Wi-Fi — iwctl on that node only extra models — cameo pull 
iwctl
  station list
  station wlan0 scan
  station wlan0 get-networks
  station wlan0 connect 'YourSSID'

Pair Cameo Link to the hub with a single-use code. Request routing and pairing are preview; mutual TLS is not available yet. One machine, one card, one house can stay offline after you flash.

Developers: container or build the ISO yourself

Container — host owns the GPU driver:

podman build -f containers/Containerfile -t cameo:vulkan .
podman run --rm -p 9090:9090 \
  -v cameo-models:/var/lib/cameo/models \
  --device=/dev/kfd --device=/dev/dri \
  --group-add video --group-add render \
  cameo:vulkan

Build the ISO on an Arch host:

git clone https://github.com/sadlowskik/Cameo
sudo ./scripts/build-iso.sh
sudo CAMEO_EDITION=lite ./scripts/build-iso.sh

Beta, pre-v1. Flash an .iso, not Source code. Check SHA256SUMS. The disk installer erases the drive you pick. Source: github.com/sadlowskik/Cameo.
