Is there a tutorial procedure here to get the Alpine Linux installed on Raspberry Pi? If not, can you share some tips? Thanks.

I have been wondering this as well. However, I have a rough idea on how to do this. So, if it works for me, I'll share with you :)

Thanks that would be great as I am getting nowhere. I also tried bootstrapping with apk.static an -arch armhf rootfs but that fails.

It did work for me this way:
- Make a big FAT32 partition on your sdcard type c (WIN95) in fdisk
- Mark it as bootable
- Untar all the files of the archive on it
- Plug the card and boot

That's it

Tried a number of times with not getting any action. Nothing shows up on the network, no console on the USB.

Edit: Ok got it now. Video. Oops I was looking for a headless login. It works fine with the procedure you described. Thank you.
