An unofficial Debian Installer for Pinebook Pro

To be honest I was very on-the-fence about buster verus bullseye but eventually opted for bullseye to allow people to experiment with panfrost. However if I want to workaround something that makes panfrost unstable I tend to add modprobe.blacklist=panfrost to the kernel command line. I'd also note that software acceleration isn't nearly as bad as you might think... when I first got it working I didn't get the panfrost config right and it fell back to s/ware... it took me a week to notice ;-) ,

Anyhow as ever pull requests for DISTRO=buster/bullseye/sid support are both welcome and encouraged.

Thanks very much, Danielt for your installer, support of the community and sharing your insights and experiences.  Its great to have Debian options and to keep moving the PBP project along .  Much appreciated!
