hello ,
have installed the devuanpi for raspi 4/
am enquiring on how to disable the wi/fi and bt/card since i am not using it and it interferes with my concentration.
on raspios there is
/boot/config.txt
dtoverlay=disable-wifi
dtoverlay=disable-bt
how would it be handled on devuanpi?
thanks.

Hello:
... how would it be handled on devuanpi?
I expect it to be done in the same way.
Remember: Devuan is Debian but without systemd.
I opened up rpi-4-devuan-daedalus-6.1.93-arm64-ext4-2025-09-22-0257.img and mounted it.
The BOOT partition has a file named config.txt which includes what you are looking for:
--- snip ---
# enable uart
enable_uart=0
# disable wifi and bluetooth
#dtoverlay=disable-wifi
#dtoverlay=disable-bt
# remove test rainbow
disable_splash=1
--- snip ---
Is there no config.txt file in your Devuan RPi installation?
Best,

Hello ,
thanks , it is missing.
cat /boot/config.txt Z=file or directory not found

Hello:

Not if it actually boots.
I don't think a RPi would boot without a config.txt file.
Have you checked elsewhere on the drive?
eg: /boot/firmware/*?
Best,

thanks,
it is there, just someplace else.
solved by =menu-config which lets easily edit config.txt and saves
/boot/broadcom/config.txt
would be nice if there were toggle in Network section to activate/deactivate also the WiFi/Bluetooth (most probably needed separately)
