Ready to use ISO #66

It would be great to have ready to use ISO instead of long instructions, I think it will make Lazycat much easier to use have a look: https://github.com/futurice/chilipie-kiosk

thanks for your work!

We could but the ISO would end up being quite large though. (Like several GB large.) I have always tried to make the work as minimal as possible. Actually in very early commits, the binaries were included directly in the repo and a user would just need to clone the repo and double click all.sh. Up until very recently, the official guide was to download precompiled binaries in the release page and then run all.sh directly. However, in the current official Raspbian image, precompiled binaries would not work because the wpa_supplicant needs to be downgraded and also NetworkManager should be installed to enhance performance. These are two main reasons I chose to provide step-by-step instructions instead. I could update the release page or write an installation script (which would simply contain the commands in README), but neither would save a user much time.
