Also - some kind of "rescue package" would be nice for first time JB devices on 5.6.5, when you start giving people shell access..

But its early days..

TLDR; Tutorials on enabling USBNetwork and a "rescue package" (if possible) might be needed for new users.
You can find all in his 'snapshots thread' - yes, they will all work.

Directions haven't change for any 5.x.y series firmware, the only thing about the packages that need updating is for new hardware models not new firmware models.

set the forum index filter to: tools, click show threads, there find NiLuJe's snapshot threads.

set the forum index filter to: tutorial, click show threads, there find many threads on installing/using USBnetwork (ssh and telnet clients).
