Simplest for the user.

Maybe I should learn how to GPG sign packages and the repository...
Probably the biggest issue is that I need a certificate that is accepted
by the Debian key ring.

Yes, the Pyra and OMAP5EVM have both (2-4GB RAM, 8-16 times as fast CPU
and SATA interface). But I still need one that is not too often needed
for something else. And, the only spare SATA hard disk I have is broken...

So maybe someone with suche a machine can pick up my work and report results.

BR,
Nikolaus
