Hello Marko, Awek and Leaf Users,

Awek is right there was supposed to be .img files for serial or vga screen.
It didn't happen as we planned, so the right way of preparing a USB key is
as Marko describes: The section in the user guide "preparing the flash
media" shows you how to format, install syslinux and the mbr.

But some leftover .img files are still available in
https://sourceforge.net/projects/leaf/files/Bering-uClibc/ in 7.0.0
(Bering-uClibc_x86_64_vga.img or Bering-uClibc_x86_64_ser.img). These files
are for x86_64 and will boot a system called "leafinstaller" . These .img
files can be copied on a USB key with "make bootable USB stick" ,
Raspberrypiimager, BalenaEtcher or even "dd" . Booting it will get you in a
preconfigured system which can be used "carefully" (I didn't check it) as a
firewall. It will also help you generate another three partitions USB key (
in lrcfg menu, use " i) install to disk (experimental) " which will give
you a locally accessible target that you can easily set up from a web
browser. Make sure to set up the "rules in shorwall" before connecting it
to the net and using it as a firewall.

I'm including a quick (newbie and crude ) guide to set this up if you ever
want to try it.

bonsoir a tous
