x86 support
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Gluon can run on normal x86 systems, for example virtual machines
|
|
and VPN boxes. There is no WLAN support on x86 though.
|
|
|
|
Targets
|
|
^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
There are two targets for x86 images:
|
|
|
|
`x86-generic`
|
|
Generic x86 support with many different ethernet drivers; should run on
|
|
most x86 systems.
|
|
|
|
There are three images:
|
|
|
|
* `generic` (compressed "raw" image, can written to a disk directly or booted with qemu)
|
|
* `virtualbox` (VDI image)
|
|
* `vmware` (VMDK image)
|
|
|
|
These images only differ in the image file format, the content is the same. Therefore there is
|
|
only a single `x86-generic` sysupgrade image instead of three.
|
|
|
|
Please note that the `x86-generic` image doesn't include VirtIO support, so another virtual NIC
|
|
like `pcnet32` must be chosen when using VirtualBox.
|
|
|
|
`x86-kvm`
|
|
The `x86-kvm` image uses VirtIO as its harddisk and network driver.
