It wouldn't be bigger than life if it were just a few .debs, would it? It's a ~ 8GB ready to use OS image based on Ubuntu. It will boot up read-only from bare metal (at least a few I've tested), as a virtual machine or even from a USB memory stick. It'll ask for your OpenAFS credientials in GUI and you will arrive on your AFS homedir. Well, you can access your Liitin account from a browser as well, even though it's a native OS. I'm actually currently working on adding a sort of Internet of Things support by means of pub-sub messaging. The idea is to be able to add new devices to control from Liitin account or develop new things out of their features. Sorry, got carried away....
