Wow! You made this video on my birthday!

[louisfifteen]

You are a genious in keeping things simple and secure. Great and easy to follow instructions.

[kynize]

I've enjoyed watching and learning from your content. Thank you for your work.

I have installed Debian 12 since your last video on net install version and is using now. It is supreme and is my only daily OS.

[michaelwright]

That's very clear, thank you. Just one suggestion: the Debian website is not designed to be easy to navigate, and it might be helpful to provide a guide to it--the sort of nice, calm, clear guidance you do so well.

[MrPapiBanda]

Thank you so very much for explaining so simply.

[itzesco]

Sir Do you have CentOS Guide or it is similar to Bebian so I can use same guide

[geirha]

Great information thanks. Maybe next time..in Debian video. I would love to see howto live install with /home at a different partition or hard drive.

[justusposthuma]

Suggestion for a future video: I have heard multiple opinions about the "right" way to install Linux, specifically using different partitions. For example, one school of thought is to use separate partitions for the OS, swap space, home folder, etc. I'd love to hear your take on it!

[StevieRayLou]

When will we get nala, the latest front-end for apt?

[MyReviews_karkan]

I've always wanted to know what that "replace a partitions" option does.

[knightone]

What is the Standard iso? I see that on the page.

[lostbranchranch]

trying to install CubicSDR on Debian 12, do you have a video for that ?

How can I add desktop icons to Desktop

I just did a live install today (late October) and it was COMPLETELY different than what your video shows. I chose the Cinnamon live install (debian-live-12.2.0-amd64-cinnamon.iso), and it never asked me to enter a password like "live". It was just a very simplified version of the Calamares installer, just asked very few questions, mainly about language, location, and keyboard, and the rest was all automated.
Maybe, they made it different, depending on the DE you choose? Your example was with Gnome; try it with Cinnamon and you will see what I mean. They really "dumbed down" the Cinnamon install; I don't think even LMDE would be any easier.

Can't choose between Fedora, PopOs and Debian for a 10years old laptop (with Dual gpu) for productivity!!! We use it for Cloud db management, large text files and calendars. Send Help 😢

[nxjtrci]

Thank you man now I can install debian😅

[jo-vrn]

Hi I installed Devuan on an old laptop, I did some tests to have a minimal system, I used many times the command --no-install-recommends to not install dbus and elogind. I use jwn and xfe file manager.

[marwabifisse]

I installed debian 12 using kde live iso, i had a problem with some raspberry files while updating maybe some kind of problem in the iso, i reinstall the system (with some work) to fix the problem, and it's working alongside windows so great, and if i'm not using macos, i use debian
