=Target Platforms=

The target platforms for this software are:

* An XO laptop (AMD Geode) -- [[Trial1 Server Image|An image to start with]]
* A conventional desktop machine (Intel or AMD 586+)
* [[XS_Server_Specification#XSX_Specification|XSX]], a dozen early prototypes (hardware selection ongoing)
* developer boards for processors under consideration

At least 256 MB of memory (and a storage device capable of supporting virtual memory) is required. 512 MB or more is suggested.

The storage device may be attached using:
* SATA
* IDE (PATA)
* USB

The networking interfaces will be varied. Each server will support up to three Marvell wireless mesh networking modules connected via USB 2.0. In addition, at least two 100baseT network intefaces will be provided for connection to the WAN and LAN. These may also be connected via USB.

No graphics capabilities are planned. If a server (such as a desktop machine) has an attached keyboard and display, they will used for a text console.
