-{pve} is based on the famous https://www.debian.org/[Debian] Linux
-distribution. That means that you have access to the whole world of
-Debian packages, and the base system is well documented. The
-https://debian-handbook.info/download/stable/debian-handbook.pdf[Debian
-Administrator\'s Handbook] is available online, and provides a
-comprehensive introduction to the Debian operating system (see
-xref:Hertzog13[]).
-
-A standard {pve} installation uses the default repositories from
-Debian, so you get bug fixes and security updates through that
-channel. In addition, we provide our own package repository to roll
-out all {pve} related packages. This includes updates to some
-Debian packages when necessary.
-
-We also deliver a specially optimized Linux kernel, where we enable all
-required virtualization and container features. That kernel includes
-drivers for http://zfsonlinux.org/[ZFS], and several hardware drivers.
-For example, we ship Intel network card drivers to support their
-newest hardware.
-
-The following sections will concentrate on virtualization related
-topics. They either explain things which are different on {pve}, or
-tasks which are commonly used on {pve}. For other topics, please refer
-to the standard Debian documentation.
