System images with mainline kernel

  • Mainline kernel with large hardware support, headers and some firmware included
  • Docker ready
  • Both mPCIe are operational and convertible to mSATA, M2 operational
  • Added patch to unlock Atheros regulatory restrictions which unlock 5Ghz AP mode in cheap Atheros cards (ath9 driver)
