Which Raspberry Pi model - Pete Batard has a version of UEFI that works on
a Pi 4 and can boot enough to then use the Debian installer. Essentially,
you put UEFI and the raspberry pi firmware package in the ESP on a USB stick
or disk.

Otherwise, you can probably use one of Gunnar Wolf's images which will
allow you to ssh in as root initially. See his pages on the Wiki.

All the very best, as ever,
