// Content continues in each page file and all remaining HTML tags close in the footer.?>Here you will always find the latest version of the TalkingArch live image. A torrent file is also provided which can give you faster download speeds, because it will download from multiple sources simultaneously. You will also be able to clone the git repository to build and test the latest changes before they are released here.
Please note that TalkingArch, like the official Arch Linux iso, is compatible with any 64-bit AMD/Intel (x86_64) machine, as Arch Linux will officially drop the older 32-bit i686 architecture from its package repositories no later than the end of 2017. As it is still possible to install on i686 hardware for now, you may download the last dual architecture iso image via the links provided in this blog post.

Download via BitTorrent
This is the recommended method of downloading the TalkingArch live image. BitTorrent takes pieces of the file from multiple sources and puts them together as they are downloaded. Not only does this method allow for faster downloads that use less bandwidth on a single server, but it also allows for better file integrity, as each piece of the file is checked for any corruption after it is downloaded, and if an error is detected, the piece is downloaded again until it passes verification. This torrent will download the latest TalkingArch iso along with its GPG signatures for your convenience.
In order to allow everyone to take full advantage of the benefits of the BitTorrent technology, please keep your client open as long as possible once you have downloaded the file>

File Integrity Verification
Before attempting to use this iso, especially if burning to optical media such as a DVD, it is a good idea to verify the integrity of the downloaded file. This will ensure that you have a complete copy that is not tampered with or corrupt in any way. It is possible to verify the current build of TalkingArch using Kyle's GPG signature and Kelly's GPG signature. The iso can be verified using Kyle's key and Kelly's key.
