Release and Installation
Everything between a green build and a user running Impossible OS: the release artifacts and how to write them to media, unattended installation, the update server, release QA and certification, and the public release and community process. The artifact pages document tooling that ships today; the roadmap pages say plainly what is still planned and link the section that owns each gap.
Release Artifacts
| Document | Topics |
|---|---|
| Boot Artifacts: Build, Verify, Write | Raw, USB, VHDX, VDI and ISO images: build, write, verify, troubleshoot |
| Boot Artifact Manifest Schema | The manifest schema every artifact is checked against |
| Windows Host Tooling: Release and Inspector Parity | PowerShell equivalents of the release and inspector scripts |
