i would replace in the side-menu the downloads section and the
sublinks mirrors,dash1, with just this single page.

reasoning:

1) right now the only way to find out about isohybrid possibility is
by reading the release notes from 2016, so i thought about what page
this would fit on best.
2) no images -> faster to get to actual download link (in comparison
to mirrors link that points to fqa)
3) dash1 can get directly downloaded with one click, but the iso not.

alternatively could add download page link to top bar, like current code link.

Download 9front
================
Images
-----
Multiple installation media are provided for PC and rpi.

For PC the images can be either burned to CD as normal, or dd'ed directly to disk (relies on the ISOHYBRID mechanism).
The 386 version supports more drivers, amd64 having less.

For Raspberry Pi, SD card images are provided. dd them directly to an sd card (Example on 9front: gunzip -c /tmp/pi.img.gz > /dev/sdM0/data)

The pi.img file can be used for Rpi 1, 2 and 3.
The pi3.img file can be used for Rpi 3 and 4.

All files including the torrents are gzip compressed, gunzip first to get the iso or img file.
