What is required to add monero node to make freedombox the i2p + monero equivalent of an umbrel? I believe this would bring in the monero community and further the future development of freedombox.

The downside is a Monero node uses a fair bit of disk space. So it could be easily added to larger implementations but would be probably too big to include by default. It might be worth having a quick optional setup of how to add a Monero pruned node to a Freedombox.
