TODO:
check for Nvidia Optimus support - or make it happen somehow
compare sizes of glibc and musl installations
need xdg menu maker?
adjust required USB stick and RAM size in README
do not rely on the RTC
- change the message when configuring UTC/localtime to reflect that this is only for offline usage
- use ntp to get time
- only fall back to using rtc if offline
- do not set the RTC
make our own or extract (if feasible) kb selection and time zone selection to hijack them for our purposes
- potentially interesting packages
- ckbcomp
- kbd-data
overview of the installation process at the start
overall progress indication (step x out of y)
look into roxterm as an alternative terminal
include arandr or something similar in fully featured desktop utils
deal with the entropy thing that runs after rc.shutdown
first run message in .xinitrc.d
- auto-removes itself
- displays README.txt on root dir of the F2FS partition
add online check to all the selections that need internet
sort out /etc/resolv.conf for the chroot
set keyboard layout for initramfs

musl downsides:
- no nvidia drivers
- may be janky in regards to running some Minecraft versions
musl upsides:
- ??
Stage 1:
-> select kb layout
-> select installation type (x86_32/x86_64, glibc/musl)
-> configure time zone
-> selection dialog?
-> symlink /etc/localtime
Stage 2:
-> set up user
-> ask for username
-> run useradd (non-interactively)
-> useradd --groups "comma,separated,groups" --create-home --shell /bin/bash $USERNAME
-> groups: dialout users wheel
-> ?? groups:
-> video - Can use GUI? Can use webcam?
-> cdrom optical - can listen to CDs? Can watch DVDs? Can mount / unmount CDs/DVDs?
-> storage - can mount / unmount disks from GUI?
-> scanner - can scan things (for example using XSane?)
-> network - can interface with NetworkManager?
-> kvm - can run QEMU?
-> run passwd (interactively)
-> clean up
-> mv /mnt/target/etc/sv/agetty-tty1/conf.bak /mnt/target/etc/sv/agetty-tty1/conf
-> if [ -f /mnt/target/root/.profile.bak ]; then mv /mnt/target/root/.profile.bak /mnt/target/root/.profile; else rm /mnt/target/root/.profile; fi
-> rm -r /opt/void-usb/installer
-> build new squashfs image and reboot
