Wow, cool! Great work! I'll try myself asap. We already have an experimental buster-minimal image now and if it works well enough, I can provide a "letux-phosh" package that pulls in all dependencies. And maybe someone from the community wants to look into the performance aspects (llvmpipe) since I know that the experimental Replicant 6 did run quite well with a software renderer. So it may just be some config option.
