 ## How to build a wireless driver?
 
-Install and recreate kernel headers scripts (optional)
-
-	armbian-config -> install kernel headers
-	exit
-
-	cd /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)
-	make scripts
-
-Go back to root directory and fetch sources (working example, use `ARCH=arm64` on 64bit system)
-
-	cd
-    export KSRC="/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)"
-	git clone https://github.com/pvaret/rtl8192cu-fixes.git
-	cd rtl8192cu-fixes
-	make -C "$KSRC" M="$PWD" ARCH=arm
-
-Refer to [Linux Kernel Documentations: Building External Modules](https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/kbuild/modules.html) for more information.
+Install kernel headers:
+
+	armbian-config --cmd SY004
+
+Download driver sources:

-## How to run Docker?
+Plug the USB wireless adaptor and proceed with [network configuration](/User-Guide_Networking/)
 
-Docker works reliably with the distribution-provided builds. It is as simple as `apt-get install docker.io`.  
-If you prefer to use the latest Docker builds provided directly by Docker, please follow the guide below.  
-Though if you run into trouble using those please revert back to distribution binaries before complaining.  
+## How to install Docker?
 
-Preinstallation requirements:
+Minimal:
 
-- Armbian 20.08.17 or newer with Kernel 3.10 or higher
-- Debian Buster (might work elsewhere with some modifications)
-- root access
+```bash
+armbian-config --CON01
+```
 
-This method is based on Docker Debian installation [documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/debian/). Execute this as root:
+Full featured:
 
 ```bash
-apt-get remove docker docker-engine docker.io containerd runc
-apt-get install ca-certificates curl gnupg lsb-release
-mkdir -p /etc/apt/keyrings
-curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/debian/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg
-echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/debian $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
-apt update
-apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-compose-plugin
+armbian-config --CON02
 ```

-If you would like to use Docker as a non-root user, you should now consider adding your user to the `docker` group with something like:
-
-```bash
-usermod -aG docker your-user
-```
-
-You will have to log out, and log in once more in order to be able to run Docker without being root.
-
-Let's try a last test to see if a Docker container can be seen outside of your Armbian machine:
-
-```bash
-docker run -d -p 80:80 hypriot/rpi-busybox-httpd
-```
-
-... and point the browser of any device in the same network to `http://<IP OF YOUR DEVICE>/`

-## How to set wireless access point?
-
-There are two different HostAP daemons. One is **default** and the other one is for some **Realtek** wifi cards. Both have their own basic configurations and both are patched to gain maximum performances.
-
-Sources: [https://github.com/igorpecovnik/hostapd](https://github.com/igorpecovnik/hostapd "https://github.com/igorpecovnik/hostapd")
-
-Default binary and configuration location:
-
-	/usr/sbin/hostapd
-	/etc/hostapd.conf
-
-Realtek binary and configuration location:
-
-	/usr/sbin/hostapd-rt
-	/etc/hostapd.conf-rt
-
-Since its hard to define when to use which you always try both combinations in case of troubles. To start AP automatically:
-
-1. Edit /etc/init.d/hostapd and add/alter location of your conf file **DAEMON_CONF=/etc/hostapd.conf** and binary **DAEMON_SBIN=/usr/sbin/hostapd**
-2. Copy **/etc/network/interfaces.hostapd** to **/etc/network/interfaces**
-3. Reboot
-4. Predefined network name: "BOARD NAME" password: 12345678
-5. To change parameters, edit /etc/hostapd.conf BTW: You can get WPAPSK the long blob from wpa_passphrase YOURNAME YOURPASS

-## How to connect IR remote?
-
-Required conditions:
-
-- IR hardware
-- loaded driver
-
-Get your [remote configuration](https://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/) (lircd.conf) or [learn](https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Set_up_LIRC#Learning_Commands).
-
-You are going to need the list of all possible commands which you can map to your IR remote keys:
-
-	irrecord --list-namespace
-
-To start with learning process you need to delete old config:
-
-	rm /etc/lircd.conf
-
-Then start the process with:
-
-	irrecord --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 /etc/lircd.conf
-
-And finally start your service when done with learning:
-
-	service lirc start
-
-Test your remote:
-
-	irw /dev/lircd

-### How to freeze your filesystem? (outdated)
-
-In certain situations it is desirable to have a virtual read-only root filesystem. This prevents any changes from occurring on the root filesystem that may alter system behavior and it allows a simple reboot to restore a system to its clean state.
-
-You need an ODROID XU4 or Allwinner A10, A20 or H3 board with legacy kernel where we added support for overlayfs. Works only on Ubuntu Xenial. Login as root and execute:
-
-	apt-get install overlayroot
-	echo 'overlayroot="tmpfs"' >> /etc/overlayroot.conf
-	reboot
-
-After your system boots up it will always remain as is. If you want to make any permanent changes, you need to run:
-
-	overlayroot-chroot
-
-Changes inside this will be preserved.
