Instead use the Image for Beowulf, for RaspBerryPi 2:
http://arm-files.devuan.org/devuan_beowulf_3.1.0_armhf_rpi2.img.xz

Its an updated image with last kernel and all functionality, including
Raspberry PI Userland tools, which means drivers to interact with
camera, videocore, and such..

Its well supported, and its a recent release: 04-Mar-2021
