Creating an image request

I currently use the same ARMv8 image for Pi Zero W2, Pi3 and Pi4.
Is there a Bullseye image supporting Pi Zero W2, Pi3, Pi4 and Pi5 using the same image?
This will help me a lot as I only have to distribute and administrate one image for all platforms.

I don't think there will be a single image for all. But you can use our latest https://dietpi.com/downloads/images/testing/DietPi_RPi234-ARMv8-Bookworm.img.xz image supporting W2, Pi2 Pi3, Pi4 and install the Pi5 kernel using dietpi-config. This way you could create an own image and move it between all device.

That image supports the RPi 5 as well. It ships with the 4k page size kernel, that supports all (64-bit capable) models. The RPi5 image ships with the 16k page size kernel, which might have some performance benefits on RPi 5, but is not supported by the older ARMv8 arch of the older RPi models.

Did you btw mean Bullseye for some reason, or is Bookworm fine? While those kernel packages are generally distro version agnostic, they are available on the RPi Bookworm repo only. So they would need to be pulled/provided separately, to generate a Bullseye image with them.
