OS

OS-selection

In general any Linux can be used.

Kali Linux

In most cases Kali Linus is recommended because it already comes with many tools useful for pen testing and network analysis both wired and wireless, reinstalled. While you can choose between 32-bit and 64-bit, 32-bit is recommended since it gets tested the most.

Display Installation

RF

HackRF One

SDR tools and RF-Analyses

If the HackRF One is used, a wide range of tools can be used. One of the best and well maintained tools is GNU Radio. Along with GNU Radio GQRX will be installed. It provides a good "waterfall" frequency display.

Matlab/Simulink

Matlab and Simulink offer toolboxes to interface and program the HackRF One.

Meshatastic

In order to use Meshtastic CLI and API with any supported Meshtastic device, Meshtastic Python needs to be installed. The integrated Meshtastic device can be either used for Meshtastic or any other LoRa application.

Later

In later versions I'm thinking about supplying a preconfigured, ready-to-go image.
