All right, So. pulled the latest installer, ran it. (downloading packages before installation took 3+ hours!)
and, I've got debian bullseye installed to an sd card, however:
I've got a couple problems atm.
boot never gets a gui, the debian gui logo appears, then flashes a curser icon in upper left, then mouse arrow flashes in center of blank screen, then flashes cursor icon in upper left. ad infinitum.
I can Ctrl F1 and log in, however, can't get wifi to do a thing, so can't manipulate anything.
Sudo works, but there was no option to create a root user, as all normal debian installs do.
How do I create a root user in bash shell, and
How do I configure and activate wifi in bash?
I chose debian-desktop, xfce4, and laptop in taskselect in installation.
I just finished re-reading this entire thread while running the installation
TIA.
