-  - OS based on Debian Linux, Raspbian 10 buster 
-  - Fully open source 
-  - Customized specifically for Qortal 
-  - Optimized performance and a must-have! 
-  - Hardened Kernel security. No more local exploits 
-  - Locked the memory copy b/w internal and external memory devices 
-  - Added Entropy hardware for maxed out entropy. Far more than an i7 Processor 
-  - Thermal control. Yes you can add fans and they will auto start when the temp hits 51C 
-  - SPH implementation of crypto functions 
-  - Updated crypto algorithms 
-  - Full SoC encryption enabled on board the CPU for UI and Core speedup 
-  - Overclocking assist now supported on 4B rev 1.2 and above 
-  - 32 is enabled by default. You will not need 64 bit 
-  
-These releases can guarantee uptime of years without a single reboot or stall. No one will ever need to reboot a Pi 4 anymore, provided you use the recommended power bricks. Users have option of Headless releases or with a full featured accelerated Desktop GUI Release: QortalOS TitanMATE, QortalOS NXT LXQT, QortalOS NXT GNOME, Plasma, Plumbus, XFCE, Cinnamon, or Russcade.

 +==== QortalOS - TorchieMATE - 64bit - 16GB and 32GB QORTector versions==== 
 +(Release Date: Sept 16, 2022) 
 +Repository: Qortal/Brooklyn · Tag: 3.0.1 · Released by: Crowetic 
 + 
 +This release is packed with 'Torchie' that is built for the upcoming memPoW release of Qortal that will eventually be built into consensus. 
 + 
 +It is also a fUll GUI version, built for the QORTectors. 
 + 
 +Please NOTE - due to the tremendous amount of work that went into the customization on the 'pi' user, the decision was made to leave it as 'pi' for this release. You may have noticed the headless version has a 'qortal' user. 
 + 
 +For this release, the username/password defaults are: 
 + 
 +Username - pi 
 +Password - dmax911e 
 + 
 +Just like the previous NXT releases, etc... In the future I may re-work it so that the user will be 'qortal' like it is on the headless, but there are a TON of customisations to the pi account, so leaving it for now. 
 + 
 +This version is FULL 64bit (ARM64just like its headless predecessor, therefore supports ARRR. 
 + 
 +All of the details from the headless release below regarding the kernel and its improvements, also apply to this release. 
 + 
 +This release also includes a customised GUI done by HFactor, and some added modifications by crowetic and Scare Crowe for ease of use and performance and debugging. 
 + 
 +*The 16GB version does NOT include the Qortal db or the auto-start feature - The 16GB version comes with a link on the desktop to Start the Qortal Core, simply double-click it and click 'run'. If you WOULD like to enable the auto-start, you can simply use crontab -e and remove the '#' in front of the line that says @reboot ./start-qortal-at-boot.sh - this will start the core in the background just like the QORTector version does. You can also use the 'startup applications' tool to create a startup method that will start with the GUI, but this will only work if you have a monitor attached. 
 + 
 +*The 32GB version DOES include a copy of the Qortal db, and auto-start feature - Remember, that with the 32GB version the Qortal Core STARTS AUTOMATICALLY and RUNS IN THE BACKGROUND. This means you do NOT have to start the Qortal Core, you simply start the device and the Qortal Core starts automatically. 
 + 
 +This release has been tested on both 4GB and 8GB Raspberry Pi devices, and is currently undergoing more in-depth testing of the memPoW on the 4GB pi. Results of the longer testing of the memPoW on the 4GB pi will be made available to the Qortal community upon completion.

 +PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS A HEADLESS (NO GUI) RELEASE - The GUI release will be made hopefully within the next day or so. 
 +** Username is now "qortal" as default with generic password "dmax911e" ** 
 + 
 +This release is a total re-write of the code with 361,531 additions and 199,814 deletions as well as 124,068 additions and 87,873 deletions! Also including: 
 + 
 + Kernel 6.0.11 for Qortal with mempow hard crunch handling. 
 + 
 + Standard kernel will not be able to handle upcoming mempow hence this is released. 
 +   
 + This build is optimized for the core version 3.3.x and onwards. Welcome abroad DigiByte, Raven and ARRR. 
 +   
 + The entire system is now arm64 instead of previous hard float 64 release (kern,userspace) for ARRR chain support. 
 +   
 + Re-written DRM with crypto advantage for Qortal Core.

 + 
 +(Release Date: May 12, 2022) 
 + 
 +Repository: Qortal/Brooklyn · Tag: 1.3 · Released by: Crowetic 
 + 
 +Hello again Qortians, it's time for another release of the TITAN! 
 + 
 +It is my pleasure to take over the releases of this amazing development while Scare Crowe is in Ukraine. (He is of course the one still doing the development, I wish I was that good...heh. But I will be handling the releases.) 
 + 
 +This is the newest QORTector image that will be used on all of the QORTectors sold by Crowetic Hardware Development LLC (https://crowetic.com) including the new 'QORTector-KB' that will be going up on the website shortly. 
 + 
 +This image still uses MATE desktop environement as it has been continually proven to be the best performing desktop environment for the pi4. We will likely continue using MATE desktop for the foreseeable future. 
 + 
 +This image is setup to start Qortal Core automatically upon boot, and run in the background, this means you will NOT see the Qortal icon on the taskbar unless you stop and start Qortal, or change it to use a .desktop startup file. 
 + 
 +The image also comes with a pre-installed bootstrap and version 3.3.0 of the Qortal Core. This makes the image 32GB minimum size, so you will need at least 40GB of free space on the computer you plan to image from, and you'll need at least a 32GB disk to image to. 
 + 
 +I will also release a 16GB version of this image soon. Hope you enjoy the new titanPLUS image! 
 + 
 +This one includes the following improvements, and more... 
 + 
 +1. Real-time page scan and allocation 
 +2. Cache compression 
 +3. Real-time IRQ checks 
 +4. Dynamic I/O allocation for Java heap 
 +5. Java page migration 
 +6. Contiguous memory allocation 
 +7. Idle pages tracking 
 +8. Per CPU RAM usage tracking 
 +9. ARM NEON scalar multiplication library 
 +10. NEON/ARMv8 crypto extensions 
 +11. NEON SHA, Blake, RIPEMD crypto extensions 
 +12. Parallel NEON crypto engine for multi-algo based CPU stress reduction
