openSUSE Leap Micro 6.1

Leap Micro is an ultra-reliable, lightweight operating system built for containerized and virtualized workloads.

This community version is based on SUSE Linux Micro, which leverages the enterprise-hardened security and compliance components of SUSE Linux Enterprise. This merging of technologies provides for a modern, immutable, and developer-friendly OS platform.

Leap Micro since 6.0 offers a self-install image, a raw image, and a Packages DVD that can serve as an offline repository. The Self-install image is our recommendation for any USB-based installation since we no longer use traditional installers. Users can automate and customize their installation with either Ignition or Combustion or using the jeos-firstboot wizard. Give a try to Fuel Ignition our online Ignition config generator.

Try Leap Micro in VMs running on either Xen or KVM. Using a Raspberry Pi or other System on Chip hardware may use the preconfigured image. Both preconfigured and self-installed images are intended to be used with Combustion written to a USB, which is driven to allow configuration on any first boot, with the option for default password protected changes.
