Hi Richard, Because I wanted to run pure Debian and didn't like the customizations the pre-built PINE A64+ images had I wrote a small script to build my own (bootable) images. https://salsa.debian.org/amp-guest/pine64/blob/master/pine64_buildimage It could serve as inspiration (or base) to write your own script.
