Bénard-Marangoni instability in a bilayer liquid-gas system with a deformable interface is investigated. The present work is devoted to a linear approach. We discuss the influence on the onset of stability of the following parameters: initial temperature profile, relative thickness of the gas and liquid layers, deformation of the interface, influence of the evaporation process, and the wetting parameter.
