Armbian maintains its own kernel branches. While official Debian kernels are often "vanilla," Armbian kernels are heavily patched to support the specific hardware found on SBCs—Wi-Fi chips, GPIO headers, GPU acceleration, and power management. The ISO ensures that the correct kernel version (Legacy, Current, or Edge) is baked into the image.

Think of Armbian as the "OEM firmware" for the ARM single-board computer world. The team behind Armbian does not just repackage Debian; they patch the kernel, optimize the bootloader (U-Boot), and provide hardware-specific tweaks for CPU voltage regulation, thermal throttling, and memory timings.
