#Core features
- Boots straight into text editor - no login, no GUI, no X.Org.
- Provide syncing (wirelessly to cloud, via QR code a la Pomera, USB key / SD card, email, or whatever)

mkdir -p config/includes.chroot/etc/skel

#To-do list
- Configure GRUB: bypass boot menu, splashscreen?
- Automatically connect to wifi?
- QR code transfer of typed text to phone. (Use e.g. fim / fbi to display QR code in terminal?)
- Boot settings: keyboard layout, timezone, user-default-groups for USB drive access?
- Modify .bash_login to launch text editor with filename specified?
