The wiki is open for edits by all volunteers. I would suggest you open
an account, and help us improve it.

There is ongoing work to use debos [1], which does basically the same
thing that pmbootstrap does, and is more debian-specific.

It is still work-in-progress, and you can find it here [2], and here
[3]. I think the latter is closest to ready.

You can contribute to this as well, by creating an account on our git
forge [4]. If you have a Github account, you should be able to login
using that as an oauth provider.

I cannot speak on the device situation, but out of curiosity, would you
be able to obtain one of the devices in the "Community" [5] table of
supported postmarketOS devices?

Those would be nice to also port to Leste, even if they are not
currently supported.

Best Regards
