Pi2 Wired Network Issue?

2021-10-27 Thread Oregano

At $45 with 3GB RAM, optional eMMC (35 for 64 GB), WiFi, etc., it seems interesting, but why is there almost zero coverage on Debian sites? The Debian testing installer seemed to work, but initial boot didn't, or gave a blank HDMI display. At this point I don't recall spending any time trying to
