Voyage Linux 0.7.5 released

Looked for Habr, about Voyage, not a rumor. And today just released another release of this very interesting distribution based on Debian for embedded systems.

Version 0.7.5 is based on the 2.6.38 kernel and Debian 6.0.2 "Squeeze".

The next upcoming version is 0.8, which will include the 3.0.x core, and Voyage will be one of the first distros on this core.

Voyage is honed to work on the following platforms: PC Engines ALIX / WRAP, Soekris 45xx / 48xx and Atom, as well as virtual machines.

Differs Voyage low resource requirements. A typical installation requires a total of 128MB of disk space. In general, the Voyage trick is that it uses unioinfs and mounts the entire system on read-only, thus, the system on the flash drive is not zapilivaetsya.

Typically, Voyage makes a firewall, wireless access point, Asterisk-based IP PBX, music player, or network storage. Personally, my Voyage works on the ALIX board with three ethernet ports and a WiFi card, is an Internet access point for the office (eth0), while two PPPoE providers are connected (eth1 & eth2), one for data and one for IP telephony. Voyage distributes WiFi, and office IP phones are connected to it (installed Asterisk). It was all bought here , but the Askozia distribution was demolished and installed Voyage.

The box looks like this:

Further…
There are three versions of Voyage:

All versions are distributed as tgz or live cd for i386 architecture. Only the basic version works on AMD64.

Well, the list of changes in version 0.7.5 here.

Voyage is the theme! Recommend! Oh yes! Only recently found out that there are wikis by Voyage - wiki.voyage.hk . I highly recommend reading about rw / ro and recover to avoid surprises.
