Sure. The Plug computers will never be as easy as devices with a UI.
But it would still be nice to at least be able to say "install this root
FS onto an SD / USB drive and then do X, Y, and Z in your Uboot config
to get it to boot". And have the kernel be on the SD/USB instead of
nand flash. (I'm pretty sure that the plugs can boot off SD or USB).
