+Adding SSH public keys
+======================
+
+By using the package ``gluon-authorized-keys`` it is possible to add
+SSH public keys to an image to permit root login.
+
+If you select this package, add a list of authorized keys to ``site.conf`` like this:::
+
+  {
+    authorized_keys: { 'ssh-rsa AAA.... user1@host',
+                       'ssh-rsa AAA.... user2@host }
+    hostname_prefix: ...
+    ...
+
+Existing keys in ``/etc/dropbear/authorized_keys`` will be preserved.
