I must have come to a page similar, but to not recall previously seeing all the choices showing on that page linked above. I saw one choice only for the netinstall at the time I downloaded the iso. ISTR it was about a week after buster was announced. Would it have made a difference when asking about a realtime kernel for it? If the armhf netinstall boots via grub I'd consider that enough of a plus, as I might do a rebuild as all those srcs are on a separate drive I could disconnect while the netinstall was running. 64 gig u-sd cards I have already.
