CHAPTER 5

Diﬀerent Images for Diﬀerent Purposes

ccording to [5], there are different types of images. They are represented at Table 5.1.

Name Description

base-image Very minimal system without GUI. SSH login over built-in networking

(usbnet, ethernet port, . . . ). This is indended for headless devices

with very small amount of ﬂash (like routers) or for special-purpose installs

(such as standalone portable servers, automation controllers, data loggers, etc.).

console-image Usable system without GUI. Can connect to net via BT/WiFi/USB.

Should handle devices connected via CF or USB Host.

minimal-gpe-image Very minimal system with X11 GUI, on which you may install

software you need. Suitable for devices with minuscule amount of ﬂash and for

DIY fans. NOT suitable for ﬁrst-time users.

x11-image Like console-image but with X11 environment.

x11-gpe-image x11-image with GPE PIM suite preinstalled.

x11-pimlico-image x11-image with OpenedHand Pimlico PIM suite

preinstalled (VGA screen is recommended).

x11-office-image x11-image with GNOME Ofﬁce preinstalled

(Abiword, Gnumeric, etc.).

Table 5.1: Different types of images for

Angstr

om, for different purposes.

Images like

x11-gpe

and big are provided for selected devices which come with large secondary

storage (like Microdrives). If there are no such images for your device, you do not lose anything:

you can easily install any software you need from the feeds.

If you are in doubt which image to choose, use

x11-image

: it is intended as a starting point for

majority of users, offering basic GUI tools to control the device and devoid of application software

which not every user may need, thus offering good compromise between usability, size required,

and free space available.

5.1 Formats

There are also different formats for each image. They are summarized at Table 5.2.
