Software submodule
- Softy – installs a variety of useful open source software including Samba, TV headend, Synchthing, OpenHAB, Plex, Emby, Radarr, Sonarr, Minidlna, UrBackup, Docker, and ISPConfig.
- Monitor – basic monitoring. With a 5 second interval it outputs processor frequency, load, CPU%, SYS%, USR%, NICE%, IO%, IRQ%, and CPU temperature. There are much better monitoring tools available for the RV2.
