The appendix file method was the only way I could find to successfully unminimize the minimal image and bring back man pages.

EDIT: This brings total image size to 11.3 GB from 8.16GB. unminimize is probably bringing back more than man pages. Maybe there is a way we can restore man pages without using the full unminimize script?

Resolves #63

Just saw the message about image size, @MattF-NSIDC. I think additional 3GB could add 30s, maybe a minute to image pull performance. Unless man pages are being explicitly taught in the workshop, I would recommend against using unminimize.

We have been planning to teach man pages in the workshop. Does the image need to be pulled for every new node-share or only when a new node is being provisioned? Do you know of a less inflationary approach than unminimize to restoring the man pages? I think there's a way, I just haven't had time to dig for it.
