[Coco] Getting back into the Coco Community after a 4+ year break

[computerdoc]

Hello Coco Community!
After a 4+ year hiatus, I am getting back into the Coco Community.
A very brief history of the last 4 years would be moving to NC in
January 2018, helping and taking care of my parents, helping Mom with
and through the last days of my father as well as details concerning
Dad's funeral. I have also been treated for heart failure for the last
2 years and doing well. An upcoming procedure is yet to be planned.
I have been studying the Raspberry Pi 4B as well as the CM4 boards. My
main RPi systems are 2 - CM4 8GB boards on a RPi Official IO board and
on a Waveshare IO board and 1 - CM4 4GB board on a 4B style carrier
board. I also have 1 - 4B 8GB board housed in an ArgonOne M.2 case with
an M.2 1TB SSD drive as my regular 4B system. In addition to all that,
I have 2 - 4B 4GB boards, 1 - 4B 2GB board, and a 3B+. You might say I
got deep into Rasbberry Pis! :) 
I am writing the list to seek assistance in setting up my local Coco
disk software build system on my new (to me) HP ZBook laptop running
both Windows 11 and Linux Mint like I use to do in Windows 7 years
back. I might setup Cygwin on Windows 11 with the NitrOS-9 build system
just to have a starting point before getting everything running in
Linux.  Anyone who has experience with Linux Mint (a debian variation)
running on an HP ZBook Xeon Laptop and TwisterOS v2.1.2 (currently) on
my Raspberry Pis as the OSes being used to build Lwtools, Toolshed,
NitrOS-9 and etcetera coco software packages in sharing their setup
ideas would be a big help.
I have begun trying to get Lwtools, Toolshed, and NitrOS-9 build
systems running on my laptop in Linux Mint to no avail so far. Some
deep diving is required to continue in this direction. Stoppage on
TwisterOS is not knowing how to solve some of the tool differences
required between my previous Cygwin setup and using real linux systems
as mentioned. Any help would be much appreciated. 
I am looking forward to getting back into NitrOS-9 again at whatever
version it is currently and exploring all the new boards I have only
heard about up to this point.
Zippster, what is your web site again? I want to check out your boards
again. Any other websites sporting boards for the Cocos are most
welcome as well. I'd like to reconnect with all my close friends again,
but email addresses will be needed as my entire email setup has been
totally redone in both Windows 11 and Linux systems! I am really
looking forward to chatting with you guys again. Until next time, 
Take care my friends.
