this script is something i started with, but not really finished. The
idea is a web based alpine-setup for headless boxes.

Try setup-webconf.

You need to login. Default user is 'alpine' and password 'test123'.

get a welcome wizard. Unfortunally the wizard is not here.

setup-webconf

gcc might be handy if you want use the iso for a distcc host in your
compile cluster ;)

Easiest would be to copy the stuff you want to USB/CF. (or to a

remove those you dont want) and:

md5sum *.apk | gzip -c > INDEX.md5.gz
