I’ve downloaded the (~20GB once unpacked!) usb-install image from https://docs.radxa.com/en/orion/o6/download -> https://dl.radxa.com/orion/o6/images/debian/orion-o6-usb-install-debian12-preinstalled-desktop-b3.img.gz and have written it to a USB drive.
Plugging this in and powering on gets me to a grub prompt.
From here, I can configfile (hd0,msdos1,gpt1)/grub/grub.cfg to get an actual boot-menu with 30 items, but selecting the last (and default?) of these, Cix Sky1 on Orion O6 USB boot only (Device Tree), throws back several errors and returns me to the prompt.
Editing this entry and inserting the correct paths finally allows me to boot - but then I get:

I’ll note that I’m providing USB-C PD power on USBC0, I have a monitor plugged in by HDMI but it can’t see any signal, NIC0 is plugged-in, and I’ve tried the USB boot drive in both the top USB2.0 and USB3.0 ports.
Any suggestions for what I’ve missed or done wrong?
