+# Linux Setup Guide
+
+!!! info "This is a streamlined guide for setting up a single game via Steam."
+
+    This will help you install 1 instance of Reloaded per game.
+    The steps try to be as minimal as possible.
+
+    This is a generic guide for any game. For more specific info, consider looking up
+    a ***game specific guide***.
+
+!!! help "Help Needed"
+
+    This documentation page could be improved, contributions would be very welcome.
+
+## Install and Run your game via Steam
+
+If you have a Steam game, install it and run it at least once.
+
+If you have a non-Steam game, add it to the launcher and launch it from Steam.
+
+!!! info "This is required for [Protontricks] to discover the game."
+
+## Install Protontricks
+
+If you are on a *Steam Deck* or have *FlatPak* pre-installed on your Linux distribution,
+use the [Installing Protontricks via FlatPak][protontricks-flatpak] section.
+
+Otherwise refer to the [Protontricks] documentation for installation info.
+
+## Install Reloaded-II via Protontricks
+
+Download [Setup-Linux.exe] (Direct Link) from Reloaded's releases section.
+
+Then start it via Protontricks. ***Right-click*** the EXE in your file browser and select `Open with Protontricks Launcher`
+from the context menu.
+
+![OpenWithProtontricks](./Images/OpenWithProtontricks.png)
+
+!!! note "You may need to look into the `Open With` menu."
+
+And select your game from the list:
+
+![OpenWithProtontricks](./Images/ProtontricksLaunchGui.png)
+
+This will install to your desktop:
+
+![OnWine-InstallsToDesktop](./Images/OnWine-InstallsToDesktop.png)
+
+!!! note "The Linux installer does not have a GUI"
+
+    Installation may take a minute, please be patient.
+
+    As an approximation, the installer will download 140MB of files, install 4 runtimes and Reloaded.
+    This usually takes 10-30 seconds and is mostly dependent on internet speed.
+
+## Add a Game
+
+!!! info "Add your game to Steam"
+
+- For most Steam installs this will be `Z:\home\<your_username>\.local\share\Steam\steamapps\common\<gamefolder>`.
+- For ***Steam Deck*** users with game installed in SDCard this may be `E:\steamapps\common\<gamefolder>`.
+
+![AddGameInReloaded](./Images/AddGameInReloaded-OnWine.png)
+
+## Launching Reloaded-II
+
+Installing via `Protontricks` should have created a shortcut on your desktop.
+Provided you don't move the game folder or Reloaded folder, this shortcut should 'just work'.
+
+You are done.
+
+## [Optional] Starting Reloaded with your Game via Steam
+
+If you wish to auto-inject Reloaded while starting your game via Steam without
+having to go through the launcher, try using the [Using ASI Loader](./LinuxSetupGuide.md#using-asi-loader) step of the legacy setup guide.

+
+## Installing Protontricks via FlatPak
+
+!!! info "Includes any distribution where FlatPak is available."
+
+To insall Protontricks via FlatPak, we will need [Flatseal] and [Protontricks].
+
+- [Flatseal] will allow the sandboxed [Protontricks] to see alternative Steam library locations.
+- [Protontricks] will let you run Reloaded inside the game's sandbox.
+
+These can be installed via a FlatPak supporting Package Manager such as [Discover]:
+
+![Discover](./Images/FlatPak-Discover.png)
+
+After installing, first launch [Flatseal]:
+
+![Flatseal](./Images/Launch-Flatseal.jpg)
+
+Scroll through the left column of apps in [Flatseal] until you're able to find and click on "[Protontricks]". This will display a configuration list in the right pane:
+
+![Flatseal](./Images/Launch-Flatseal-3.png)
+
+Scroll down to the "Filesystem" section:
+
+1. Enable `All user files`.
+2. Under `Other files`, add a new entry for "/run/media".
+    - And any other locations you may have Steam titles installed.
+
+Close Flatseal.
+
+Lastly add an alias so `protontricks` can be executed from the terminal:
+
+```bash
+echo "alias protontricks='flatpak run com.github.Matoking.protontricks'" >> ~/.bashrc
+echo "alias protontricks-launch='flatpak run --command=protontricks-launch com.github.Matoking.protontricks'" >> ~/.bashrc
+```
+
+Paste these lines into a `terminal` window, and press `enter`.
