Cucumber-flavoured instant Linux, just add water ...
====================================================

This is the legacy version of my instant-wheezy image.
It should be workable for most 32-bit PCs, most thin-clients with or
without PAE, and it also should work with any NIC, or in virtual machines.
The most common criticism about Debian stable is the outdated software,
so backported packages were pinned to be preferred over otherwise stable
versions, and the default 3.2-kernel was removed.
Minimum hardware requirements are: 256 MB RAM, 512 MB recommended, 400
MHz i486-CPU, 16 GB CompactFlash or bootable USB2.

Instructions:
-Extract the image, then dd it on CompactFlash-card or onto
USB2-memory-stick:
$ unxz instant-wheezy-32-de-bpo.img.xz
$ dd if=instant-wheezy-32-de-bpo.img of=/dev/sdx
-in order to use Privoxy from localhost, basic configuration is
required, example files are provided.
-then configure the browser to use localhost on port 8118 as proxy for
both HTTP and HTTPS.
-when using it as web-proxy from the LAN, typically a static IP has to
be set for the server and the listen-address accordingly.
