Apparently, /tmp is now on a tmpfs in memory. This explains why there 
are no files left after shutdown. iirc this is new?

Another thing I found with respect to the devel image is that it is 
missing /usr/bin/contour which is present in the testing version.
I assume contour is responsible for painting the main parts of the UI?
This would explain why a black screen is shown but some parts (like lock 
screen or volume settings) of the UI work.
