9{pve} is based on the famous https://www.debian.org/[Debian] Linux
10distribution. That means that you have access to the whole world of
11Debian packages, and the base system is well documented. The
12https://debian-handbook.info/download/stable/debian-handbook.pdf[Debian
13Administrator\'s Handbook] is available online, and provides a
14comprehensive introduction to the Debian operating system (see
15xref:Hertzog13[]).
16
17A standard {pve} installation uses the default repositories from
18Debian, so you get bug fixes and security updates through that
19channel. In addition, we provide our own package repository to roll
20out all {pve} related packages. This includes updates to some
21Debian packages when necessary.
22
23We also deliver a specially optimized Linux kernel, where we enable all
24required virtualization and container features. That kernel includes
25drivers for http://zfsonlinux.org/[ZFS], and several hardware drivers.
26For example, we ship Intel network card drivers to support their
27newest hardware.
28
29The following sections will concentrate on virtualization related
30topics. They either explains things which are different on {pve}, or
31tasks which are commonly used on {pve}. For other topics, please refer
32to the standard Debian documentation.
