You're giving too little detail. This is just an image that's meant to be flashed to SD card and has everything setup already. No need to run p-boot-conf.

You're amazing. Thank you! I'm looking forward to trying this out.

I imagine for updated versions of the operating systems, there is no easy way to update individual distros?
If you enlarge the partition/filesystem, you can update them the regular way.

At least pureos update worked out fine for me.

I made some files that need to stay the same immutable, so as long as update will not try to overwrite the bootloader, updates should not break my changes to the modem scripts.

It's not a Braveheart induced issue, is it?
To me it looks like an unrelated question (to this image) about p-boot in general.

It's big so it's distributed as torrent only: https://megous.com/dl/tmp/0b32272c297f80...40.torrent (seed if you can)

Many thanks for that brilliant work.
I fully understand that you do not want to have the full downloading traffic on your website. However I never used torrents and was not able to get my installation working.

Therefore my suggestion that you put that image on some common storage server like pastebin and publish that URL heere.
I'll try to upload beta version somewhere, when it will be available.
