Yeah. I also thought of directly editing the rcS to automatically mount the disk image, not launch Nickel and start Alpine right away.
Moderators, feel free to move this if you also think that that should belong to the devs' forum. I put it there because I thought that some people probably don't like the default web browser of Nickel, and thus providing Firefox/Falkon as a replacement and easy-to-do thing is what I've done (or at least, tried to).
