I am still learning the ropes of linux. I have a Yoga Book and and just trying to figure out how to even install your version of Debian on it. How do I add an installer?

Will that work with newest kernel 6.X and latest ubuntu 23.04?

Should work if you install Ubuntu and then install additional .deb packages from the latest release. But wasn't checked.

Amazing work on the latest release! Just managed to get everything working with Debian 12 and Gnome 😄

Steps roughly:

  • Flashed the latest .iso from this repo onto an SD-card
  • Booted the live environment from the SD slot
  • Trust sources key to be able to sudo apt update using sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys YOUR_MISSING_KEY_HERE (key shows up in the error message)
  • Install gparted
  • Removed all existing partitions
  • Created a boot (ESP), root and swap partition
  • Followed this guide to set up a minimal latest stable Debian environment on the root partition (make sure you mount the ESP partition and point to it when setting up grub in the end)
  • Installed gnome and all packages from the latest release (including some missing dependencies that are required)
  • Installed the Wifi Adapter driver apt install firmware-brcmfmac
  • Reboot & Enjoy

(special thanks to Microsoft Copilot for helping with and explaining all steps along the way)
