   If you don't like networkmanager, it is easy to switch to the old method   
   after installation of the base system:   
      
   https://github.com/mschwingen/hardware/tree/master/YOGA_GPIB/software   
      
    apt install isc-dhcp-client ifupdown resolvconf   
    apt purge modemmanager network-manager ppp avahi-daemon   
      
   got me to a state where the classic configuration using   
   /etc/network/interfaces just works.

   I had a serial console connected, but that is only activated at a later   
   step. I sued raspberry pi imager to setup ssh pre-boot, but you can easily   
   do that using a text editor.
