Hi again,FYI, due to an (asahi) upstream u-boot bug [1], you need a USB-C keyboard -- or USB-A keyboard plugged into USB-C via adapter -- to install the minimal (i.e. console) version of Debian on M2 Mac Minis. All other Macs, including M1s and laptops, are fine, as far as we know. This issue is being tracked in [2].
