Remove any bootable media with an OS installed (i.e. uSD). With an empty NVMe network install should be no issue.How do I install Trixie on a Pi5 with NVMe drive? I tried holding down SHIFT during boot and it just launches the Pi desktop as normal. I thought that's meant to launch the imager?
Do I have to do it the old fashioned way via SD card?
