My Debug did some small progress the other day, and can confirm I walked into 
https://bugs.debian.org/1015810

> /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 300: can't open '/run/net-*.conf': No 
such file or directory

That said, It also says
> g: eth0: SI0CGIFINDEX: No such device
> g: no devices to configure

So there is maybe more to my bug.

> I'll be happy to try to improve 
/usr/share/doc/dropbear-initramfs/README.initramfs if needed, or even
create an HTML page under .pages.debian.net if online material is
desired

I would be glad to help ! :)

> but I think the wiki shouldn't be used as a brain dump that way
without coordination with the maintainer (duplication of existing
documentation shipped in the source package tend to rot and diverge over
time).

I agree, I was quite deprecated and past out.

Can you please revert your change to the wiki, it's not user friendly and will 
help nobody since it does not link to a proper page.
Many internet sources do still link to the wiki page.
The page could be emptied and have a link to a .pages.debian.net

But the wiki page should redirect to somewhere. Maybe the README.initramfs on 
Debian sources or Salsa ?

> See the NEWS entry for 2015.68-1, /etc/ssh and the initramfs image have
different access control so blindly suggesting to convert key materiel
from one to the other is a bad idea.  The page also had misleading/
confusing information between dropbear and dropbear-initramfs.

I did not apply the key part as I saw it generated keys by itself
and dropbear-initramfs worked perfectly without key instructions on my 
RaspberryPi 4B
