All done as root so far - still finding my feet with Linux permissions,
so didn't want any extra complications!  The stray 'sudo' commands are a
left-over from copying and pasting the commands from various sources.

Yes, one nice thing about the network setup with this image is that you
can edit the network.yaml file on your PC immediately after making the
USB stick, then put the stick in the Joggler and SSH in.  Is it possible
to make a user at that stage too, before booting from the stick?

I've just started to look at Roobarb's Squeezeplay image.  Any idea how
to transfer Applets to a new Jivelite installation?  Do I just copy the
Applet folders over?  There's no guarantee that they'll work, if they're
doing things to specific files, but it would be nice to get the easy
network setup, the Joggler backlight, and the 'screensaver while off'
features of Roobarb's Squeezeplay.

I did spend a bit of time yesterday evening making duplicates of my
installed 8GB setup - I used dd to make an image, shrank the main linux
partition and then truncated the image file, and the resulting image
file was comfortably less than 2GB.  I then deployed that to a couple of
other Jogglers and they both worked perfectly.  Next step will be to
transfer the Jivelite binary and the necessary libraries to the internal
version.
