I think the code is good enough and now is the time to get more users
testing it.
It works on my specific hardware cause I bug-hunted the sh** out of it.
needs to be tested on more computers.

I guess I have to install devuan to get a working environment then.
Any input on what would be a good install iso for this? I mean
an iso with a system we should target. Maybe better to do a virtualbox
install, might be a lot of rebooting with initramfs work.

Thank you Adam for offering help, Are you knowledgeable on initramfs in
general?
I think we need someone versed in debian/devuan initramfs generation
with hooks and so
on?


I think Aitor wrote a while ago about creating a vdev package?
Aitor could you give an update on that effort?


best regards
