## Installation hints
You will need a =>3.3.x version of bsdtar, Arch linux works.
If the eMMC does not show up as /dev/sdX, but /dev/mmcblk0, the last two
installation steps may fail silently or with write errors.
Booting of a Live USB/CD may result in write failure to the eMMC, use a USB drive
with a persistent filesystem instead.
