 You now have a nice portable Ubuntu system complete with working apt-get, nvm, node, and npm. If you run out of space you can reclaim some by running `apt-get clean` from within the chroot.  Also you can resize the partition when it's not mounted using `resize2fs`.  This image can be copied to other devices and reused there.
 
-You'd be surprised what you can do in this environment that works in the host environment at well.  For example, I've found that Ubuntu's `htop` program will run as is in the host webOS environment.  I just copied the one in `/media/chroot/usr/bin/htop` to `/usr/bin/htop`.  Also I found that SDL programs build in the Ubuntu environment will successfully link with the sdl libraries that are part of the PDK system and they will launch as cards when run in the host environment.  With things like SDL bindings for node, you would be able to develop PDK apps in JavaScript on your TouchPad. See <https://github.com/creationix/node-sdl> for a start on such a library.  This library was developed, compiled and tested 100% on a mobile device.
