From Alpine Linux

Another idea:

# mount -o remount,rw /media/mmcblk0p1
# mount --bind /media/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/media/mmcblk0p1
# FORCE_BOOTFS=1 setup-disk -m sys /mnt

Then at least I don't see errors about being unable to write to /mnt/boot. Not sure yet if the result is quite what's needed.

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.
