NASlite-2 uses the Linux kernel and drivers shipped with the Linux kernel source. In terms of hardware support, NASLite-2 handles pertinent hardware supported only by drivers shipped with the Linux kernel. Although, there are vendor-supplied drivers for some devices, most all of those are supplied as modules. Naslite-2 uses a monolithic kernel and as such cannot utilize devise driver modules.

When researching hardware for use with NASLite-2, The Hardware Compatibility List is an excellent source. It can be found at: http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/, and includes many categories of devices that are not pertinent to NASLite-2. Nevertheless, the information provided by the Hardware Compatibility List is probably the best resource to use when researching hardware.

Hope that helps.

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the hardware references, it should be very helpful.

Which version of the kernel is used by NASLite V2?
