Re: Installation images for arm64
OK, I downloaded the netboot stuff first, there's nothing bootable on
the sd image it made, mostly a bunch of dbs. So I tried the netinst.
On my Pinebook Pro, booted from a mrfixit Stretch on emmc I see:
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
mmcblk0 179:0 0 59.5G 0 disk

├─nvme0n1p6 259:4 0 10G 0 part [SWAP]
└─nvme0n1p7 259:5 0 733.3G 0 part /data
I think I should follow
https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/arm64/ch05s01.en.html#arm64-console-setup
And it looks like I need to find my serial console cable and enable it
with the switch inside the PBP. This has no text mode like an i386,
video seems to be one of the last things loaded. I'm not familiar with
UEFI so I'd rather not use it. I have a 1 TB nvme SSD, I'd like to
install into partitions 1 and 5 with swap on 6. My intention is to
leave partition 7 for my stuff and have the OS replaceable.
I installed an iso file by dding it to an sd, but it doesn't boot so
I'm in Stretch on the emmc. I can look inside the install disk.
