Ditto. Quite nice and small!

I just subscribed to the mailing list and planning to spend some time
helping with Alpine Linux since I enjoy (Suckless) DWM.

I noticed a bug or two with the installer when trying to install just to
/, instead of /boot & /. Just haven't had the time (as usual) to track the
issue down and submit patches or suggestions. :-/

And thank God, no resource hogging Python package manager, and just
either sh/bash and C! (Or what I see so far!)
