- added
socatas a new default package - added
irqbalanceas a default service to take care of distributing IRQ load across all processor cores - added
rngdas a default service to read random numbers from the hardware random number generator from a RaspberryPi (/dev/hwrng) to substantially increase the entropy pool for/dev/random - implemented orderly "shutdown" functionality in WebUI (
Config -> Maintenance) - removed microSD init/setup and firmware update WebUI components as they are not required with RaspberryMatic
- fixed firewall setup to also setup/start the IPv6 firewall with the same settings like the IPv4 version

This is an early alpha version of a brand new RaspberryMatic version and not meant for production use.
Changes:
- First completly redesigned development version.
- There are still broken features like filesystem structure (readonly root file system), backup, restore, install extensions..., but it's possible to teach-in and control HomeMatic RF devices.
