An unofficial Debian Installer for Pinebook Pro
(02-12-2020, 03:58 AM)dumetrulo Wrote: I have started playing around with this installer, and set up a minimal Bullseye (no tasks) on an SD card.

How do I go about configuring WiFi on this minimal setup so I can start adding components?

Also I noticed that the minimal setup is missing basic things like a shutdown or poweroff command, how can I add these at the time of installation?

I believe you will just need the "wpasupplicant" and "network-manager" packages. With those installed, the "nmtui" command is a ... usable way of getting networking set up without a DE.

"shutdown", "poweroff", and "reboot" are in the "systemd-sysv" package, but they're just meaningful symlinks to the "systemctl" command, which is the shiny new way of ordering shutdown and whatnot. I believe "systemctl shutdown" will shut down the system without those links, but I will continue using the old commands until the sun goes nova.
