DebianOn is an effort to document how to install, configure and use Debian on some specific hardware. Therefore potential buyers would know if that hardware is supported and owners would know how get the best out of that hardware.

The purpose is not to duplicate the Debian Official Documentation, but to document how to install Debian on some specific hardware.

If you need help to get Debian running on your hardware, please have a look at our user support channels where you may find specific channels (mailing list, IRC channel) dedicated to certain types of hardware.

Important Note

I didn't do a fresh install, just put in the hd from one of my other zotac boxes...

This works with bookworm using the most recent backports kernel 6.10.6+bpo, except that wifi (Intel AX101) using the iwlwifi driver doesn't seem to work. (Occasionally the card is seen on boot, but never works for very long.)
