Hi Israel,

I'm glad the mini image (tarball) works for you, and I'm looking forward
to your result.

-o-

I have been testing the OBI version 2.6 (the same as you have in
ToriOS), and it works for me, when installed into a home directory named
myself (as in my standard OBI) as well as into a home directory named
guru using this mini image

precise-mini.tar.xz

But I have found a flaky function when installed into a USB 3 device.
There is a black screen 'forever' after booting the installed system. I
have to open another screen (ctrl + alt + F1 ...). It does not happen
with internal drives. I'll check if this is what happens when installed
from ToriOS too, or if it is something else.

I will try again, and tell you what I see.

Best regards
Nio
