That makes me feel unsure:

> The kit includes the A20-OlinuXino-LIME2, a custom metal case with a laser-engraved FreedomBox logo, a high-speed 32GB micro SD card with the FreedomBox software pre-installed, a backup battery, a power adapter, and an ethernet cable.

That’s exactly how I bought the [Pioneer-FreedomBox-HSK](https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/Home-Server/Pioneer-FreedomBox-HSK/), so I assume the sd card IS definitely the system disk.  
How else would that work?
