This could judged that way, but to break it up on a machine style basis, 
also tends to hide LCNC's real versatility.  That can't be good PR. We 
should promote the things that LCNC can do well, not just mention them 
without details in passing.

Somebody, or maybe  somebodies spent some time sucking down my stretch 
images in the early hours, sorry about the speed, but a gigabyte circuit 
would raise my phone bill at least #20/month, but I am allowed 300 
gigs/month that I've never used more than 50 of when the radios are off.

There are a couple first start caviats so pm me if interested. Most 
important is do NOT let it update before creating a kernel.pref file in 
the /etc/aptpreferences.d directory, containing:
-----------------------
Package: *-kernel
Pin: release *
Pin-Priority: -5

Package: *-bootloader
Pin: release *
Pin-Priority: -5
--------------------
Which will pin the realtime kernel, otherwise the update will replace it 
with a non-realtime version. Oops.
