The #Wi-Fi adapter arrived for the #Orange_Pi_5. It has two little antennas. I think I will get it ready tomorrow.

@geniusmusing #Ventoy is surprisingly good. I've used it a couple of times already. But recently, I was using it on the new Armbian installation on the #Orange_Pi_5 and ran into an issue:
* It sets up the flash drive using ExFAT as the file system. The instructions say you can change it later, but I never found that option.
* The current set of OS installable programs (Armbian, but I presume Debian / Devuan / Ubuntu / Mint will be the same) does not include a version of mount that handles exfat. That was in the now-deprecated older package.
* Turns out that Ventoy has a binary executable that I was able to copy into my path and use, so now S will receive a USB flash drive with 3 live distros (Debian, Ubuntu Desktop, CentOS Stream) and one direct installer (Ubuntu Server) on it.
I was tempted to add ReactOS, just so she'd see the difference between trying to clone a proprietary system without being sued is versus writing as desired. But I know she's just doing this so she'll have a passing familiarity and be able to check that box on some HR department's screening software's checklist. #ReactOS certainly will not help there.

#Orange_Pi_5 does not come with #Wi-Fi (the 5B does), so I'm paused until the module arrives. https://nu.federati.net/attachment/290145
