That is because gamerOS currently has no desktop. You can log in with the username gamer and the password gamer. You'll have to run sudo frzr-unlock
if you want to be able to make changes to the system, though. It also uses syslinux instead of Grub.

OK, thanks for the info!
In this case I will stay with SteamOS as I cannot imagine how to accomplish everything without having access to a desktop environment. Perhaps this is because of me being used to using a desktop environment ever since. Going back completely to command line without any graphical support is not an option for me.

Well, I guess I kind of misunderstood what the purpose of gamer-os is. Coming to think about it I guess it does make sense if you see it as a simplistic OS that focuses solely on being a console-like OS for gamers that do not want to touch anything outside the Steam GUI.
I am a heavy, almost fanatic SteamOS user. In fact I really love SteamOS. Of course that's not the only distro I am using, I still have Ubuntu on my laptop and I switched my desktop working PC from Ubuntu to Manjaro last month, but I also own three different Steam Machines (an Alienware ASM100-2980, a Zotac SN970, and a custom built Steam Machine with an i7 and a GTX1080, all of those with SSDs and upgraded RAM, and each of them has, of course, SteamOS on it).
I love SteamOS so much because on one hand it's very easy to handle and on the other hand it's extremely "tweakable", if I invest some time I can get almost everything get to run on it, and sometimes for some things if necessary I can tweak them until they also perform well...
The only downside of SteamOS is that most drivers and libs are heavily outdated and that the repos do not contain everything that might be needed or would be handy to get certain (Windows -)games to run (with Proton). Or for example there seems to be no way to get GameMode from Feral to run on SteamOS https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode
When I read that you are building a SteamOS-like distro that derivates from Arch instead of Debian I was hyped. My wishful thinking was that gamer-os would be just like SteamOS, but with newer drivers and libs and with the whole power of the Arch repos. If that would have been the case I would have switched to gamer-os immediately. But to trade my beloved SteamOS for a simple console-like OS where I can only launch those things that do run "out-of-the-box" and where I have no chance to get also special things to run is not an option for me. It's just a very different approach. But thanks for the reply, I truly respect your efforts for what you are doing and I am sure there are people that are looking for something like gamer-os. But I guess I for myself will stick to SteamOS.
