Perhaps we should add some dashes to make it "free-disksys-rom"?  I
wouldn't split "disk" and "sys" despite the camel case, but I'm in the
mood for kebab otherwise.

More importantly, is it expected that users can just install the
package and run with it or are extra steps needed to import it into jg
et al.?

Cheers
