Devuan Installation Guide for Tinux

This quick guide shows you the options to manually select during the Devuan
Install process in order to have a minimal base system/image to use for
following up compiling of the Tinux/Linux From Scratch system.

Here are the options to fill out for use for Tinux later. Please do not deviate
at all (time zone etc. do not have to be real for the purpose of Tinux
installation, so just follow these suggestions without regard for real location
etc.), or you will be on your own regarding the automatic follow up Tinux
installation.
