Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 aka lenny
Init menggunakan Upstart¹⁾

• Linux Kernel optimized for desktop/interactivity
• Versi: 2.6.30 untuk RC1 dan 2.6.32 untuk RC2
• Configuration
  • Base: default config of debian package from release testing (squeeze) with some modification
  • Default scheduler: CFQ (CONFIG_DEFAULT_CFQ). Other schedulers are set to module (m)
  • Preemptible kernel/low-latency-desktop (CONFIG_PREEMPT), timer freq. 1000 Hz (CONFIG_HZ_1000)
  • RC1: SLAB, RC2: SLUB (CONFIG_SLUB). SLAB is for general workload, but SLUB is set default in 2.6.32, it seems SLUB has been tested by developer
  • Disable CONFIG_X86_BIGSMP and number of CPU set to 8 (CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8)
  • Power and events based on /proc pseudofilesystem are activated, since we still use “stable” userland tools (CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS_POWER=y and CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT=y)
  • Set IPV6 to module (CONFIG_IPV6=m)
• CD #2: linux-firmware-nonfree

• live-initramfs, backported from testing >=1.173
• squashfs 4.0. this filesystem merged in 2.6.29(?) with 4.0 layout and it is not backward compatible, so we must use squashfs-tools 4.0 to generate 4,0 filesystem or we can't mount squashfs 3.x fs generated by squashfs-tools (stable)
• Another union filesystem (aufs). Generate aufs module for the kernel version. Merged in 2.6.31(?)
• Hardware detection with udev cold-plugging via live-initramfs +modules
