Nullspace currently has a default Firecracker guest kernel lane and an opt-in FUSE-capable lane for shared volumes and bucket mounts. The Python SDK does not yet expose Template.with_kernel(...), so kernel choice is an environment lane, not a per-template SDK method.

​
Current lanes

For private beta, use a deployment lane whose host kernel and rootfs are both FUSE-capable when you need shared volumes or bucket mounts. Until an explicit SDK selector ships, do not document or call Template.with_kernel(...).

​
Kernel version

The default local download lane uses Firecracker 1.14.1 and attempts the Firecracker Linux 5.10 guest kernel artifact for the host architecture. The FUSE builder pins NULLSPACE_FUSE_LINUX_VERSION=5.10.252 unless overridden. Check the actual running guest when exact version matters:
On a runtime host, operators can inspect the configured artifact path:

​
Template compatibility

Snapshot-backed templates record kernel compatibility metadata. If a runtime host cannot restore a template or snapshot safely because the kernel or architecture differs, the request fails explicitly instead of silently creating an incompatible machine. Concepts: Create, Resume. API reference: buildTemplate, createMachine.
