### Qualcomm Technologies QDF2432
***
### Boot Firmware
TBD
### Reference Platform Kernel
The Reference Platform kernel used by the enterprise release can be found on [github.com/96boards/linux](https://github.com/96boards/linux/tree/96b/releases/2016.06)
Since we use the same kernel config with all our builds and distributions, it is also available as part of the same kernel tree, and can be found at [arch/arm64/configs/distro.config](https://github.com/96boards/linux/blob/96b/releases/2016.06/arch/arm64/configs/distro.config).
At the time of the 16.06 release, the kernel is based on *4.4.11*.
### Network Installers
In order to install a distribution from network, PXE (DCHP/TFTP) booting is required. Since we require UEFI for the Enterprise Edition, the setup is usually easier since all you need is to load GRUB 2 (and its configuration). Check [this link](../DHCP-TFTP-Server-UEFI.md) for instructions on how to quickly setup your own PXE server (using *dnsmasq*).
Install instructions for the tested/supported distributions:
* [Debian 8.x 'Jessie'](../Install-Debian-Jessie.md)
* [CentOS 7](../Install-CentOS-7.md)
Enterprise Test Reports: ([Debian](https://builds.96boards.org/releases/reference-platform/components/debian-installer/16.03/EE-Debian-RPB-16.03-TestReport.pdf) / [CentOS](https://builds.96boards.org/releases/reference-platform/components/centos-installer/16.03/EE-CentOS-RPB-16.03-TestReport.pdf))
#### Other distributions
Only Debian and CentOS are officially released and validated as part of the reference software platform project, but other distributions can be easily supported as well (just need kernel and installer changes).
Extra resources for other distributions:
* [Fedora 23](../Install-Fedora-23.md)
### Enterprise Software Components
#### OpenStack
Follow the [instructions](../OpenStack-Liberty.md) on how to install and run OpenStack Liberty on Debian Jessie.
#### Hadoop (ODPi BigTop)
##### Installation
Follow the [instructions](../ODPi-Hadoop-Installation.md) to install ODPi BigTop Hadoop
##### Setup and Running Hadoop
Follow the [instructions](../ODPi-BigTop-Hadoop-Config-Run.md) to configure and install Hadoop
