Download the latest nightly image per the link given by spikerguy. then restore the image to an SDCard in the usual RPi manner. Install the card into the RPi and power on.

First time out you'll need a keyboard and screen attached to the Pi. Follow the setup step as if it was a regular PC install and then you are done.

I tried this on a RPi4. As others noted nothing happens. There is a particular thing you have to do to the boot image to make RPi4's work. Don't ask me what it is, I have no idea.

I can confirm that the TRENDnet TU2-ET100 USB 2.0 Ethernet adapter works just fine. I got one this morning from my local Microcenter for $14.

I have the usual NATing router setup. Internet is being provided by my Netgear cellphone router (I have a Internet only SIM card). I have also set up an openVPN client connection from the RPi to my home pfSense system connected to 1gbps Verizon FiOS fibre. An Iperf3 test from my laptop in the RPi to my desktop Linux machine on the pfSense comes in at about 25mbps with no compression. Oh, and that was fun. Seems that "no compression" on the RPi OVPN settings does not turn off the compression.

I'm happy! Well done to all involved in this effort. Let me know if I can do some more testing.
