Then at least I don't see errors about being unable to write to /mnt/boot.  But it ends up with redundant files in /media/mmcblk0p1 and /media/mmcblk0p1/boot so that turned out to be a bit of a mess to clean up after all.

TBH I can't believe it's apparently been a couple of years of debate about how to work around the problems in the installation script, and it's still not fixed.  I'm kindof new to alpine (except to the extent that it's the basis of postmarket OS) and having to work around installer problems does not make a good impression.
