Oh, yeah. :/ Perhaps qemu might be better option here. There might
even be pre-built disk images flying around.
Sorry, yes that's what I meant! To install it under qemu!
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get it to work.
I managed to get bookworm installed, and then extracted the
kernel+initrd from inside the virtual disk (as apparently that's
needed), but the kernel won't boot due to: `Unhandled fault: synchronous
abort (translation table walk)`.
At this point I'm not really keen on debugging whatever that armhf
kernel issue is :(
If you know of a functional official image that I can use to try to
reproduce the problem, or recently-tested steps I can follow to get a
working qemu install, please let me know.
Thanks,
Alberto
