Debian live is less well tested than the standard Debian installer - it does things slightly differently. That is also an older version. The netinst .iso I suggested above contains firmware - with the next Debian major version, firmware should be included in the installer. (Bookworm - Debian 12 on release - currently in hard freeze for release later this year). The corresponding Debian live with firmware for 11.6 is at https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/current-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/debian-live-11.6.0-amd64-xfce+nonfree.iso > --> Did you install a 32 bit version or a 64 bit version ? > > 64 bit. > > --> On the physical disk - have you ever tried to install any other > operating system ? > > UEFI.

Other larger media are also available. https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/11.6.0+nonfree/amd64/ has iso-cd and iso-dvd images, for example. > ---> You show three variants of the kernel - which one came from the > original ISO. > > 5.10.0-18-amd64 > > Thanks. > Thank you for replying with details that will help us solve your problems :) All the very best, as ever, Andy Cater
