Actually, you don't need to install SteamOS on the Steam Deck because it comes pre-installed! The Steam Deck is designed by Valve to run SteamOS out of the box, so you can jump straight into your gaming library without the hassle of setting up an OS. However, if you've tinkered and need to reinstall or you're just curious, Valve provides support and guidance on their website for reinstalling SteamOS. Always make sure to back up your games and data first!
