I used them. They worked flawlessly. On scripting I’d give you an A+. On teaching linux newbies to run `bash -c "$(remote_unseen_and_unknown.sh)"` as root, you merit an F-.

The result is a debian 10.6 edit: [~~live USB image~~](http://qdh.nl/tmp/fabian64.20201031.img.7z) superseded, see [below](https://discussions.flightaware.com/t/source-packages/69802/68). That SDR dongle I ordered from the UK [10 days ago](https://discussions.flightaware.com/t/source-packages/69802/30) is still in the mail, so I haven’t been able to test. I’d love feedback from anyone with an x64 laptop and a spare dongle who would like to give it a go.

Notes:

- Minimum size of USB stick is 16G. The unpacked image is only slightly smaller. It’s a full graphical system with KDE on writable ext4; no squashfs, no persistence overlays, it can be used just as any ordinary HDD-based system.
- Only BIOS boot works. I’ll add EFI boot later.
- The password for root and for user pi is “1090”. Do change them at the first opportunity.
- The image doesn’t have a feeder-id, so it will create a new one as soon as it is booted. Please remember to delete the feed from FA’s servers when you’re done playing with the stick.
- The system reports itself (image-type) as fabian64[\*1]. That’s not recognised as a valid feeder type by FA’s adsb/stats/user web interface, but it can be used internally to track the uptake or lack thereof of the live-USB.

.

[\*1] It just happened to make sense as a name for FA-debian. Later we might have fadora and fantos and, what do you know, even fandows, god forbid.
