Installing/Preparing Debian on a headless system
Hello,
after learning that the Debian-based RaspberryPi OS does not get
security fixes always in time (see dirty-pipe), I am considering
installing pure Debian on my system. It seems not all proprietary
components are supported, but I don't need video acceleration anyway,
for example. My Pi acts as a home server.
The thing is, the Pi is headless, it was never connected to a monitor or
keyboard, all configuration was done via SSH on a pre-built Raspberry PI
OS image. I do not even have an USB keyboard and the Pi has obviously no
PS/2 connectors.
Do you have some ideas for me, how I could prepare a minimal Debian
image on my notebook which is able to boot on the Pi and has already an
user and SSH configured? Everything else I would setup remotely.
Thank you,
Christian
