The biggest new changes in the Arch Linux 2015.10.01 ISO image is support for the Linux 4.2 kernel, as the September build was powered by Linux kernel 4.1.6 LTS. As such, users can now install Arch Linux with Linux kernel 4.2.2. Additionally, we can notice that the systemd init system has been updated to version 226.
