Hi all, Since customizations of Debian for RPi have been discussed here, I'd like to give a pointer to more unofficial installer of Debian for RPi at https://github.com/emojifreak/debian-rpi-image-script
It does customizations of locales, etc. in an interactive manner, and it write an bootable image directly to an SD card, USB MSD, or /dev/loop?. Other features not found in raspi.debian.net include: * GPT partitioning and boot from USB (Linux kernel 5.10 prevents images on raspi.debian.net from USB booting...) * Choice of Debian 10 Buster, 11 Bullseye and later. * Choice among ifupdown, Network Manager and systemd-networkd for network configuration * Choice of package coverage according to the package priority * btrfs and ext4 filesystems can be chosen as root. btrfs compress-force=lzo significantly increases the storage speed and size (but I have less trust in btrfs...) * Setting the size of a swap partition (or lack of it) * Choice of timezone and locale * Choice of wireless SSID * Choice of keyboard layout The above installer needs a very latest version of qemu-user-static Debian package (probably >= 5.2) installed on a Debian (or its variant) host running the above installer script. Best regards, Ryutaroh
