Hi Israel,

Nio mentioned shutdown and restart not working and I found that also.

Again, network connecting must work out of the box...

The version of Midori browser has the long-standing problem (which was
fixed a while ago in webkit I think) of looping on the login page of
outlook.com...

Great work so far; I only wish there were more people willing to help
suggest answers to your many requests for input.

As Nio said, "I'm ready to test..." and that goes for me too...

It's a tricky balance between keeping it bare bones for minimal and usable
enough for its intended audience...

JackT.
