Now that I posted this I revisited the debian install the only thing missing was to add the root partition before booting setenv bootargs root=/dev/sda3 rw Of course the networking does not work as the interfaces on the dtb are for freebsd If I manage to properly build this I will post the steps to create the installer (if possible having network enabled so netinst could be used arm debian has the drivers for the network controllers already compiled mv88e6xxx) and some kind of step by step guide how to

I'm trying to do exactly this, I was able to build an arm64 Debian installer, and install it on the the m.2 storage. I've decided to start experimenting with armbian but have not got anywhere yet.
