Check that your file manager isn't set to automount, Ir's very annoying. It's in preferences there. On Mar 2, 2020 1:00 AM, "Keith Bainbridge" wrote: > On 1/3/20 3:31 pm, Keith Bainbridge wrote: > >> Good afternoon >> >> I have tried a couple of times to run my Pi on debian, using >> debian-10.3.

Geez, I remember 8-bit CPUs, and computers with vacuum tubes. But every time the word size doubles there's a transition period then it becomes the norm. Maybe the hardware design is capable but not optimized for the difference at first. Maybe the fact that a Pi 3B can run either as 32 or 64 bit

Tell us more technical details. That's like saying there was a problem but not saying what it was. Seems odd you'd be trying a CD Iso file and not some IMG file but it might work. Write it to an SD card in block mode. Yes, I had mine running Debian a couple years ago. Raspbian from raspberrypi.o

I was running a 64 bit Buster in 2018 from somebody's debootstrap script. Fairly stable for a year or so until I got rid of it. It was what I'd call "smooth", but 64 bit isn't faster than 32 for the most part. Everything's twice as big and a Pi 3B can only have 1 GB of RAM by the design of the S
