Node images

All of our images are Debian GNU/Linux testing/unstable based. There are currently three sets of images but only the first two are officially supported:

• baseline images - for experimentation purposes
• kernel development images - for development purposes
• user contributed images - user supplied images which others may make use of

Baseline images

This is a list of baseline images Orbit currently supports for use on the Orbit grid and sandboxes.

Kernel Development Images

These images are for development, as such you are expected to patch the kernel yourself. Image updates are provided upon wireless stack updates from the linvile's wireless-dev git tree. In addition to having the latest and greatest these images also have enabled debugging options for kernel development.

Image name	Image Size	Build date	Linux Kernel	Extras
wireless-2.6.ndz	622 MB	2007-11-07	2.6.24-rc1	mac80211 and new mac80211 drivers
