Edit Reason: added NVMe
)
Here is my experience with the official bullseye sdcard images
In short: Most stuff working out of the box
- Gnome(Wayland) crashes on login - still no solution
- Wireles needed some manual tweeking
Steps:
Flash the image as described here https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/arm6...rd-images/ in the README
You need a serial adapter
on a 2nd computer
This is a netinstall image so you need network connnectivity. I used an USB 2 Ethernet adapter
Boot the SD card and answer the questions in the serial console
Once done boot again from the SD card. Now you have a working console on the laptop screen
I installed Gnome but once I tried to logon (default Gnome) it crashed.
Though Gnome on XOrg and Gnome classic both work.
Wifi does not work out of the box due to missing firmware. I "borrowed" it from Armbian. Copy the Armbian /lib/firmware/bcrm/ folder contents and
ln -s brcmfmac43456-sdio.txt brcmfmac43456-sdio.pine64,pinebook-pro.txt
and Wifi works
I tried also installing to NVMe that the installer provides - no success does not boot
