As you can imagine, due to Genode's more secure design, the software 
installation process is somewhat different than traditional OSes.  One 
of the main differences is that everything is broken into smaller 
components (rather than large, monolithic packages), which you are free 
to configure in various combinations as you see fit.

A couple of times a year, they release pre-built Sculpt disk images, and 
along with these they include a nice step-by-step introduction to using 
the system.  The latest of these is at:

   https://genode.org/documentation/articles/sculpt-22-10

This covers installing various software components, as well as how to 
use other basic features of the system.

I hope this helps!

  Happy Sculpting!
