Juiceme made for me these instructions to install ED + Netsurf 3.8.

https://wiki.maemo.org/Easy_Debian/L..._Debian_Jessie

These just lack the instructions to change to the debian archives but if one just wants to use Netsurf it is better not to change to archives for there becomes easily many problems when installing there (like 20 times installed ED again after breaking it).

And for me I always have to "groupadd crontab" in chroot first when using the juicemes jessie2sulu img. because otherwise the installing stuff won't work.

But could this Juiceme instructions be modified to install netsurf 3.9? Is there some differences? And if you sulu have knowledge more of how to make the image work (or make an updated image to download with ED) that would be awesome! But appreciate all what you have done.

One question though: what is the benefit of changing from 3.8 to 3.9? I mean with 3.8 still many things wont work (videos, some sites not working properly) and if this is the case with 3.9 too I'm interested to know what is better then, why to change. EDIT: Just got an answer from the security certificate thread that 3.9 supports TLS 1.3 so maybe whatsappweb would work with that. Now just have to get 3.9 to work. If I remove openssl libcurl3 and Netsurf 3.8 and do the same with your stuff with libcurl4 and openssl as I've done with 3.8 according to juiceme's instructions should it work?

I really hope that I would have a well working browser. Things I would need for N900: working browser (gonna install again on ED chromium 57 from odroid to get whatsapp and instagram working cause netsurf 3.8 atleast could not do what I need, that is developer mode or agent to fool instagram to think I'm using mobile. I think Iceweasel maybe would do it if I only knew how to make it pretend to be a mobile cause otherwise you can't post images and I'm on amission in instagram. I follow only one person and use it a channel to post my thoughts to public), working youtube (haven't got cutetube2 to play videos even though it is said it is possible to make it happen), working navigation (which I think is possible but not yet found out how). N900 is though my main phone that I use and not wanna change that.

Thanks sulu for keeping alive N900 with ED and Netsurf and thanks for juiceme for great instructions for installing.
