Hi James, Sadly, there isn't a live CD version of Bookworm: there hasn't been for a few months. The number of people working on Debian live images is very small. I'm also a member of the Debian images team - who master CDs and do the release testing - and we test the live images at point release time but have no input in producing them master copies. The images team do maintain the images for standard (non-live) Debian install media. What sorts of problems are you experiencing with Bookworm - is it just missing firmware / drivers? [It's generally expected that if you run testing, then you can live with a lower degree of security support and are capable of sorting most problems: testing is a moving target - if it breaks, you occasionally get to keep both pieces]. Hope this helps - sorry to not have better news at this point. With every good wish, as ever, Andy Cater
