Ubuntu Core alternative
Ubuntu Core is a common immutable OS reference for embedded Linux—but defense autonomy on NVIDIA Jetson often needs tighter NVIDIA JetPack pinning, attested boot chains, and rollout interlocks with private mesh delivery. GWOS is Gentle Weapons' production Linux for Jetson: immutable rootfs, A/B updates, signed OTA, and integration with Poolnet and Poolboy for fielded fleets—not a generic snap-centric appliance model.
Where teams look beyond Ubuntu Core
Programs choose Ubuntu Core for immutability and update discipline. On Jetson, they still face CUDA versioning, secure boot alignment, and fleet payload delivery that snaps alone do not solve.
- [ OK ]Jetson-first image with kernel-locked NVIDIA JetPack stack
- [ OK ]Signed OTA with A/B rollback—not just package confinement
- [ OK ]SBOM and attestation metadata per production image
- [ OK ]Interlocks with Poolboy payload rollout and Poolnet mesh
