Hi, I noticed your recent edits to Installation page made quite a development on an optional matter (headless config), that may still be of interest for many.
I can see a few downsides on how it stands now:

• instructions for an optional thing are becoming very long (and yet incomplete)
• described method requires quite some familiarity with Alpine, whereas this guide is intended for new comers
• that solution has several pitfalls (it will transfer all same settings to any server installed with said apkovl, etc...)

I'm not sure why a reference to a straightforward and working third-party solution is now removed from wiki.
Wiki is not official doc, and any mention does not express endorsement: quality external references are just fine in wiki. Referring to backdoor is irrelevant on this topic: it is not a good place to state personal judgement.
As for the longer option you describe, it may fit better into tutorial section where things could be detailed more.

Would you reconsider the edits in that part?

We could add the link (https://github.com/macmpi/alpine-linux-headless-bootstrap) to the main Raspberry Pi page. bbbhltz (talk) 15:18, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

That apkovl solution works on any Alpine platform it is not limited to Pi-thing: I've been successfully using it on x86_64, x86,... So main install page makes sense --Alpwik (talk) 15:07, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
