IncusOS image downloader

Hardware requirements

IncusOS is designed to provide an extremely secure environment in which to run Incus and related software.
It requires a lot of modern system features and will not function properly on older unsupported systems.

  • Modern x86_64 or arm64 system (5 years old at most)
  • Support for UEFI with SecureBoot
  • TPM 2.0 security module
  • At least 50GiB of storage
  • At least one wired network port
Generate your installation image

IncusOS doesn't feature a traditional installer. Instead you can choose to either directly run it from the media it's written to, or have it automatically install itself onto an internal drive on first boot.

The installed system is only reachable through the API, there is no local shell access or remote access through SSH. The customization tool below allows you to configure IncusOS' behavior, including what client will be allowed to control the system.

Network configuration (optional)

By default IncusOS will run both DHCPv4 and SLAAC on every interface it can find on the system, hoping that one of them will provide enough connectivity to allow the user to connect and apply the final network configuration.

For cases where this approach doesn't work, such as environments requiring static IP addresses, the use of a proxy server or using link aggregation or VLANs, a full network configuration can be provided instead.
