Description

Voltumna Linux is a custom, layered and immutable Yocto/OpenEmbedded-based distribution developed by the Controls group at Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste for Tango-based accelerator control systems. Now in production on the Elettra storage ring and the FERMI free-electron laser, it supports a heterogeneous fleet of front-ends ranging from VME PowerPC boards to x86 servers, ARM controllers and FPGA SoCs.
