> torios-installer is now a traybutton (yad is not running in the background)
> This will save a bit of memory, and provide the same nice functionality.
> There is a minor issue where I have a menu item that doesn't yet work...
> However, this should be fixed in the update.

> I rebuilt and uploaded a version already... This one is not current, though.
> I will be rebuilding one soon, and this will contain all the latest 
> fixes and updates.

> I think the grub installer showing the live drive is fixed.

> I also added a check, in case the firmware folder is not existant.
