Issues when setting up XOSS Nav plus without app #2

Many thanks for this great piece of software. It was this that persuaded me to buy XOSS Nav plus.

Even before the device arrived from China, I set up a VM in proxmox and installed the software.

Hardware: XOSS NAV plus
Version: 2.0.0
Model: A2

Software: NO XOSS app installed or used!
No sync with the device - only unpacked, switched on and connected to the PC via USB

I encountered the following problems during installation, most of which I was able to solve:

I had to create the following folders manually
/root/.config/f-xoss
/root/.local/share/f-xoss
/root/.cache/f-xoss
Otherwise I could not run the setup

Only after manually creating the folders, I was able to successfully complete the setup.

As I have never synchronised the device with the XOSS app, I had to make a manual adjustment to user_profile.json.

The "user" section (between "update_at" and "user_profile") is optional. This is probably added during the first synchronisation with the app.
Only when I created this section and uploaded the modified file via USB, the synchronisation did run smoothly.

Could you please check this and make it optional in one of the next releases.

But what about routes? What format do they need to be in or how can I create them manually (without using the app)?

Can you give me a tip here or provide me with such a file? Only this last hurdle still needs to be overcome. Then I could use XOSS NAV plus to its full extent without disclosing my personal data to Chinese websites and servers.

Many thanks in advance and thanks again for your work and efforts.
