I’ve done a few full download and installs on the deck alone, but the separate pc and rsync over ssh is way faster at every step, assuming the second pc actually has the specs to do it faster. The install of a repack takes forever and a day directly on deck.

short ver: you can do it with just the deck but it’s so damn slow to install.

there are people that want to be referred to as ‘it’? Most people I know dislike dehumanizing terms. choosing them is new to me.
