Nice!

For now you can document your installation process, report and 
investigate issues found in it.
Simon reported some small details with repo selection (mirrors) and 
language, if you found the same issue, maybe report that.

Yay!, it's great to read that world's arm64 is having more Trisquel in it.

There are plans to improve the node stack, as Ecne will be adding riscv 
and more load to arm, but that's is still on it's way. Using community 
vm/nodes might require to layout some security policies, and some other 
directives, we'll need to find some time to define those if moving in 
that direction.
