Open source operating system images icon: os images
We've put together some OS images for the ALIX, the net4801 and net5501.
Choose from OpenBSD, m0n0wall, pfSense, Voyage Linux and iMedia Linux.
You can have one pre-installed when you order a box or a rack mount server (including a Compact Flash card), or when you buy any Compact Flash card.
Or you can download one and install it yourself. To download an image, please right click on the link and select "Save Link As..." (Firefox/Mozilla) or "Save Target As..." (IE) and save the file to your computer.
OpenBSD Devices supported
OpenBSD is a security-focused BSD distribution and is ideal if you're wanting to create a security-based appliance, such as firewall or a VPN. This image comes with everything you should need to build such an appliance.

This image was created with Chris Cappuccio's flashdist.

For full details of the image, please check the readme file (below).

For the official OpenBSD release, please go to www.openbsd.org.

m0n0wall Devices supported
monowall aims to create a complete, embedded firewall software package that, when used together with an embedded PC, provides all the important features of commercial firewall boxes, including ease of use. monowall is based on a bare-bones version of FreeBSD 4, along with a web server, PHP and a few other utilities.

If you don't want to build your own firewall but you want to have a full-featured firewall appliance, then monowall is a great solution.

This image has the network interfaces already assigned and configured for the different platforms, unlike the standard monowall image. This allows you to plug it in and go without having to connect to the console.

For full details of the configuration, please check the readme file (below).

For the official monowall release, please go to m0n0.ch/wall.

pfSense Devices supported

pfSense is a m0n0wall-derived operating system platform with radically different goals such as using Packet Filter, FreeBSD 7.X, ALTQ for packet queueing and an integrated package management system for extending the environment with new features.

Being based on FreeBSD 7.2, it has full support for the Atheros-based CM9 wireless card.

With an easy-to-use interface, pfSense is ideal for building firewalls, redundant servers and clustering solutions.

This image was created by pfSense and is designed for embedded systems including the ALIX and net5501.

For full details of the configuration, please check the readme file (below).

To create your own set of "factory defaults" please refer to the 'yawarra_mfd.sh' file (below).

For the official pfSense release, please go to www.pfsense.com.

Note: pfSense requires a minimum of two network connections, so to use it with the WRAP 2 or ALIX 3, you'll need to add a wireless card.

Voyage Linux Devices supported
If you're looking for all the flexibility and choice that Linux offers, then Voyage Linux can provide you with the platform you need.

This is a standard install of Voyage Linux using the voyage.update script that comes with the software. It is based on the more recent Debian Sarge distro and utilises the 2.6 kernel.

Voyage includes apt-get which allows you to easily install any other packages you might need.

For full details of the image, please check the readme file (below).

For the official Voyage Linux release, please go to linux.voyage.hk.

Note: If you are upgrading from Voyage 0.4.1 on the ALIX 2 or ALIX 3, you will need to adjust the BIOS settings for this image to boot. The MGMFT workaround option will need to be turned off. Please contact us if you need help doing this.

iMedia Linux Devices supported

iMedia Linux is a hybrid between a small embedded linux distribution and full featured linux distributions.

Linux embedded systems are used in ATMs, Kiosks, vending machines, industrial computers, point of sale, multimedia systems, internet appliances and lots of other applications.

This distribution is specifically designed for the ALIX series of boards, and can be used to create thin client computing appliances such as interactive set-top boxes, personal internet access and other embedded applications.

For full details of the image, please check the readme file (below).

For the official iMedia Linux release, please go to www.imedialinux.com.

Get one installed for you
Installation is free when you buy a box or a rack mount server (including a Compact Flash card). You can also add one to any CF card purchase for only $10.
Just select the OS you want in the product options, and your order will arrive with the image already installed on the CF card, so you can just plug it in and go.
For more information on our range of CF cards, please visit our CF cards page.
Get a custom image
If what you're looking for isn't here, we can also build custom images.
Please contact us to discuss your requirements and to obtain a quote.
Do it yourself
To write images to a Compact Flash card yourself, use dd (BSD/Linux) or Physdiskwrite (Windows). [Physdiskwrite is available from m0n0.ch]
Note: All of the above images were created and tested on a SanDisk Compact Flash card, unless otherwise specified.
If you don't have them already, you'll need a CF card and a CF card reader or a CF to IDE adapter.
A note on image sizes
The OpenBSD and Voyage Linux images have been built on particular size Compact Flash cards. As such, if you wish to reproduce the image accurately, you should use a CF card of the same size as the image. Not doing so will leave you with inaccessible space on your CF card, or worse still, an image that doesn't boot.
The image size and the space taken on the CF card are not the same thing. In the case of OpenBSD, the space taken when installed is around 35MB, leaving you some spare space for other files. For Voyage, the installation is a little under 64MB, leaving lots of room for additional files.
If you request one of these operating systems when you buy a CF card from us, we can install it onto any size CF card as long as the card is at least as big as the image size listed here. If in doubt, please ask.
Neither monowall nor the embedded version of pfSense allow you to save files to the CF card. The images will fit onto any CF card bigger than the image size. The rest of the space on the CF card will be inaccessible, so there's no point buying a bigger card than is required to fit the image, unless you intend to configure the card for multiboot operation. We recommend 64MB, because that's the smallest we stock, but for monowall 32MB will work just as well.
More information
If you would like to suggest improvements to these images, or other images you would find useful, please send us an email.
For more information on other operating systems suitable for the ALIX and net5501, please visit our software resources page.
Please note: Yawarra supplies these files for your convenience and makes no warranty about their suitability for use. We are unable to provide technical support for these images. If you're unsure, please ask your technical adviser before proceeding. These images are not endorsed by the creators and maintainers of OpenBSD, m0n0wall, pfSense or Voyage Linux.
