An unofficial Debian Installer for Pinebook Pro
Hi all, I just used this to install Debian on my new Pinebook pro, so first off, thanks for putting this together.

would there be a way to tweak what software is installed by default? Trying to install this on an 8gb uSD card with xfce and then trying to boot off the uSD card to install to eMMC, it works, but with a few tweaks. the 8GB uSD card runs out of space as it installs the required packages for the installer to run (eg, wget, etc). simply uninstalling a few programs (parole, xfburn, quodlibet, exfalso, which aren't large) and running apt-get autoremove freed up 800MB or so of space which was then plenty.
