I loaded Andreas' real CURRENT image on a Raq2+ with 256MB/16GB
and it is working very nicely...it's fast and I've installed quite a few
binary
packages and built several more from source without any problem.  The
only (minor) issue is that with the LCD driver...
ssh is snappy on tlp0.

Thanks Andreas!!!
