[tor-relays] TOR router install without access to root

[Markus Koch]

My experience is: This is the best hosting companyI ever had and I am
doing this for over 20 years. I will not run an exit node and I am
sure I will be fine.Btw, there are already alot of hight traffic non
exit nodes running on feral.

Markus

PS: I am not working for feral and I am not a family member or any
other connection :)
