   1 - Boot into macos
   2
   3 - make space - the last number is the space that macos will occupy
   4
   5         diskutil apfs resizeContainer disk0s2 200GB
   6
   7 - run the installer, do not forget step2.sh
   8
   9         curl -L https://mrcn.st/alxsh | sh
  10
  11 - Once you run the install, boot into the 'Options' menu again and install u-boot:
  12
  13         curl -LO https://tg.st/u/u-boot.macho
  14         kmutil configure-boot -c u-boot.macho -V /Volumes/Linux
  15
  16 - Format a usb stick with a vfat partition on it, mount the partition and
  17   extract the following:
  18
  19         cd /mnt
  20         curl -L https://tg.st/u/asahi-debian-live-2022-01-25.tar | tar -xf -
  21
  22 - In u-boot interrupt the boot loop by pressing return when prompted to. Use
  23   the following command to boot from the usb-stick. Loading the 256 MB initrd
  24   takes a while.
  25
  26         run bootcmd_usb0
  27
  28 - Login with username 'root'. There is no password.
  29
  30 - If you have an ethernet card (mini or usb dongle), than get an IP:
  31
  32         dhclient eth0
  33
  34 - Set the time:
  35
  36         ntpdate pool.ntp.org
  37
  38 - Install any software you like, for example gnome:
  39
  40         apt-get install gnome
  41         useradd -m -c 'user' user
  42         passwd user
  43         /etc/init.d/gdm3 start
  44
  45 - You can also use the live system to install Debian on the m1, the rough outline is:
  46
  47         - Create two paritions:
  48
  49                 - One 1 GB vfat
  50                 - Rest with ext4
  51
  52         - Use debootstrap to bootstrap debian
  53
  54         - Install grub
  55
  56         - reboot
  57
  58 The exact steps follow once I find a little bit of time.
