Then you are missing out on the many things a pi clone can do on 5% of an
amd64's power budget. Granted the amd64 can do it 20x faster, ignoring that
the pi clone is fast enough. Debian seems to treat the arm64's a toy.
Gene, this is a totally irrelevant answer to what Andrew said. Raspi
might be the best invention since sliced bread and still, asking for
Armbian advice in a Debian group is at least... fraught.
BTW, there is a semi-official Debian for Raspberry Pi, if you care.
Getting a custom kernel up and running on it (as you seem to need for
your lathe work) might be easier or more difficult than on Armbian.
I'm running one, about a year old now, on an actual rpi4b to run my
biggest lathe, but the last arm64 installer can't find its net interface
even if you fill in the blanks. Armbian Just Works. Why can't debian-arm?
