A new better way of setting up Kai on Raspberry Pi 3

Hey all, I'm just getting back into Xlink Kai.

I don't have a windows machine, and ddwrt support seems to have been dropped, and all other guides seem to be pretty out of date. so i decided id whip something up myself.

I want my Xlink server to be running all the time so Raspbain wasn't an option for me. Soooo naturally i made my own tiny distro that does the following:

1) boots linux kernel
2) connects to network
3) sets time
4) downloads latest latest xlink engine
5) starts engine on port 80

and thats it. no screwing around with iniit scripts or anything like that. If the engine exits, it restarts it etc. Very stable. been running all day long.

Heres the latest download: https://github.com/ConnorRigby/xlink-kai/releases/download/v0.1.0/xlink-rpi3-v0.1.0.img
Instructions in the README.md: https://github.com/ConnorRigby/xlink-kai/blob/master/README.md

It only works on raspberry pi 3 currently.
