Hey there,

thanks for this project. The debian installer from the Debian Stretch Release worked mostly fine.

But then upgrading debian and changing the apt mirror to deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ stretch contrib main non-free took some time and was not the most convenient way to do. Maybe you could create a new release with the current debian version and preconfigured tty output? That would be awesome!

hi, feel free to submit a pull request.

Unfortunately, pcengines.ch announced the end of production, and I'm also too busy in other projects

DO1JLR commented 1 year ago

I am quite busy with other projects as well, but maybe if I find the time I will do it...

Bookworm works if you remove all firmware-* packages from profiles/apu64.packages . I could not make the builder work with them.

ssinyagin commented 5 months ago

well, it actually doesn't work: the installer can't detect the NIC hardware

Debian 10 works fine with the installer. Didn't try the 11 yet.

Debian 11 works perfectly. You just need to install mtools before building

As of commit 5bf4c7a879519e1b69c178051db52ea33aa4efb5 , Bookworm works fine. I had to remove non-free firmware, and also you need to select Install Debian in the Grub menu. Also, it takes much longer than Debian 11 installation, for some reason.
