Well, maybe someone wants to install Debian, either because they find
an old OpenRD somewhere or because Rick's hard drive dies or
something.

Of course, but bullseye will be moved to archive.d.o at some point (I
know you can install from there, but then you have to specify the
mirror).

Anyway, I have no game play.  Like I said, it's probably all a waste
of time, but Debian bookworm works on OpenRD and d-i should work if we
add the image, we already have a patch... so it seems like we should
just do it.

My game play is that I'm a perfectionist but I am aware there are
pretty much no users of Debian on OpenRD (I only know of Rick!).

Yes, imho let's add the image for bookworm and let this be the end of
it. ;)

But if you just want to close this feature request, I doubt many
people will care.
