We went through this here a month ago. Doing a minimal
installation is specific
to each Distro, not TDE, so "it" would have to be a bunch of pages, or a more
complicated page few or no single people could make alone.
For Stretch, the cmdline options I use on
http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::12201
that include string "install" will cause a truly minimal installation, to
which
you need to add Xorg from Debian, to have a working base from which to run TDE.
If Devuan's installer is Debian-based, likely the
same options would be
applicable. If not, Devuan's own docs, help forum and/or mailing list archive
ought to address such need.
Both Debian-based, and provides howto for minimal install:
https://devuan.org/os/documentation/dev1fanboy/jessie-minimal-install
Instead of following the --include=nano instruction @Debootstrap, I would do
--include=mc, and have all its recommendeds at the outset.
