Installer Test Images 20231010

Hi There,
The below published images are installer images contain calamares installer.
I've tested the PinePhone image and its working fine.
So, I need a volunteer to test the PinePhonePro's installer image.

The main purpose to release installer images is to have FDE(Full Disk Encryption), so please confirm if it's working fine.
You can open an issue to confirm or tag me on twitter.

Thanks...
