|
||||
- Destination Machine:
|
||||
- Must be an x86-64 machine unless you are able to supply a `kexec` image for
|
||||
your CPU type.
|
||||
- If you're not using the option to boot from a Nixos installer image, it
|
||||
must:
|
||||
- Be running x86-64 Linux with kexec support . Most x86_64 Linux systems do
|
||||
have kexec support.

|
||||
- NixOS
|
||||
- Windows systems using WSL2.

||||
- **Architecture & Support:** Must be operating on:
|
||||
- x86-64 or aarch64 Linux systems with kexec support. Note: While most
|
||||
x86-64 Linux systems support kexec, if you're using an architecture other
|
||||
than those mentioned, you may need to specify a
|
||||
[different kexec image](./howtos.md#using-your-own-kexec-image) manually.
