Conversation
The download page lists two files under System Images without any explanation. Internal staff asked whether the listed items are Debian or Ubuntu, and whether qcs9075-provision is an OS. Clarify that: - radxa-airbox-q900_noble_gnome_r1 is the Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble) + GNOME desktop system image, with a note on the image naming convention (noble = Ubuntu 24.04, gnome/kde = desktop, r/t prefix). - qcs9075-provision is a UFS provisioning toolkit, not an OS image, and link to the onboard UFS install guide.

Background
Triggered by a real support question (2026-09-03): an internal colleague looking at the AIRbox Q900 download page asked "Q900 的这两个系统是 Debian 吗？有 Ubuntu 系统吗？" — the page listed two files under System Images with zero explanation of what they are.
Problem
The Q900 download page (
download.md, CN + EN) shows:radxa-airbox-q900_noble_gnome_r1— no OS/desktop explanation; the Radxa image naming (noble= Ubuntu 24.04 Noble Numbat,gnome= GNOME desktop) is not self-evident to users.qcs9075-provision— listed as a "system image", but it is actually a UFS provisioning toolkit (370 KiB), not an OS. Users may mistake it for a bootable system.Change (docs-only)
radxa-airbox-q900_noble_gnome_r1as Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble) + GNOME desktop system image (r1 stable).:::noteexplaining the image naming convention (noble= Ubuntu 24.04,gnome= GNOME desktop,r/tprefix = stable/test).qcs9075-provisionas UFS provisioning toolkit (not an OS image) and cross-link the Install System to Onboard UFS guide.Both CN (
docs/fogwise/airbox-q900/download.md) and EN (i18n/.../fogwise/airbox-q900/download.md) updated in sync.Validation

Reduces confusion for users and staff when choosing the correct image/tool from the Q900 download page.
