ASIAR Plus Kernel

To utilize the ASIAIR Plus with custom astronomy operating systems, a specialized kernel must be compiled to ensure proper functionality of the USB ports. Many of the pre-built images available on OpenAstro include this kernel by default. However, for certain software solutions, such as StellarMate, manual kernel compilation is required, as it is a paid platform. Detailed instructions on compiling the kernel can be found on the OpenAstro GitHub Wiki.
