Hello debian lemmies,

If anybody is interested, I’ve made an alternative debian installer targeted for laptops and workstation PCs. It has some nifty features over the official installer, have a look.

Comments are welcome!

    This is very nice, love the fact that you’re picking btrfs and systemd-boot as your defaults. I hope GNOME guys get over their own as*s and add systemd-networkd support so you can do the same.

      Such as?

      i386? meh.

      arm64? I am a big fan, if there was a viable laptop/workstation PC with a good linux support, I would be first in line to buy one. Apple silicon? Last time I checked, it kind of works with a dedicated distro (asahi) and half of the things I take for granted doesn’t work yet (such as external monitor.)

    For btrfs how does the subvolume layout look? For example in ubuntu it has @ and @home which is very convenient.

    Personally, I prefer setting up without backports and non-free and enabling them as needed. That said, I think the default should be more like your installer. New and inexperienced users are not going to know how to setup backports or enable non-free, or even know they exist. Nice job.
