__TOC__ = Introduction =This article is for specific 2.6.37.y Linux kernel branch serie. <br>It is interesting read Go to [[The_Linux_kernel|The Linux kernel article]] previously. On this 2.6.37.y version, supported IGEP Processor Boards are:* IGEP v2 (IGEP0020'''RF''')* IGEP COM MODULE / ELECTRON (IGEP0030'''RG''') The currently supported IGEP Expansion Boards are as follows:* IGEP v2 EXPANSION (IGEP0022)* IGEP PARIS / BERLIN (BASE0010)* IGEP NEW YORK (ILMS0015) == Older IGEP devices (Marvell wifi and NO wifi versions) - P/N: IGEP0020-RCxx, IGEP0030-RExx, IGEP0020-RF7x and IGEP0030-RG7x ==Binaries: latest stable kernel version for older IGEP devices is: '''Kernel 2.6.37-11 (20151008)'''<br> See [[Linux_Kernel_2.6.37.y | Linux_Kernel_2.6.37.y]]== Newer IGEP devices (TI Wilink8 wifi versions) - P/N: IGEP0020-RF6x, IGEP0030-RG6x ==Binaries: latest stable kernel version for newer IGEP devices is: '''2.6.37-11-wilink8 (20151008)'''<br> {| border="1"|-!
