+=== PirateBox does not work after system upgrade ===
+The PirateBox RaspberryPi images are Archlinux based. In case you want to install additional software, it might be handy to run the upgrade commands:
+  pacman -Syu
+Sometimes the packages changes, so recently the dnsmasq package will now auto enable itself. So make sure that dnsmasq is properly disabled and stopped after installing your software:
+  systemctl stop dnsmasq
+  systemctl disable dnsmasq
+You might consider restarting PirateBox after your activities:
+  systemctl restart piratebox
