HDMI support required tracking down two modules already enabled in the
linux kernel but not present in the udebs used by debian-installer. This
should be fixed in the next linux upload:

I tried an installation with the SD card images dd 2022-11-08 and I did NOT 
get output via HDMI.
I've had some other troubles getting things to work, so I won't say with 100% 
certainty that it doesn't work.

It looked like it didn't work properly via serial console either, but thanks 
to hints from Vagrant, I found out that an USB extension cable was the main 
culprit of that. Never caused any issues with RPi's (115200), but I guess 
Rockchip's 150 is more sensitive.

Connecting the serial cable directly to my laptop, made it workable.
I use 'screen' as the terminal program and instead of using the full screen of 
my laptop, it used only about 1/4 of that.
That caused some display issues and particularly on the 1st screen where you 
select the installation language. The only one properly visible was 'English' 
and I wasn't able to see/read any other languages. I _think_ trying to select 
it, didn't work either.

Luckily I want 'English', so I could just press enter :-)
The other screens worked fine, with maybe some minor glitches due to the 
limited *usable* screen area. If something can be done so that it would use 
the full screen, then I'm sure it would be perfect.

I was already planning to test d-i before Bookworm, but I had an urgent need 
to try it *now*. I normally build my own full image and put that onto the 
Rock64, but that seems to have caused a rather annoying issue, namely it had 
the same MAC address as another Rock64 in my device, which is rather important 
and also runs apt-cacher-ng for my LAN.
But I had 0 issues with that when using d-i and it indeed got a totally 
different MAC address, so mission accomplished!

Cheers,
  Diederik
