Pilot Program
Current Status
The KinuxOTA system is currently in its pilot launch phase. During this initial release, we are focusing on providing robust support for a specific environment:
Operating System: Ubuntu Linux
Architecture: AMD64 (x86_64)
This focused approach allows us to ensure stability and reliability for our early adopters while we continue to expand our platform support.
