That's neat.
Not everyone has access to wired networks. I don't, to name just one
example of a person who does not. My last Debian install, I had to use
USB networking over my mobile phone to download non-free wifi chipset
firmware.

Do you have access to ethernet port from your machine?
If so, Debian installer *should* (in most cases) work with that until
you install what you need to get WiFi working. In fact, that is how most
of my recent Debian installs went...

Stretch. That may solve your hardware issue (newer kernel). There is a
considerable version difference between the stable and testing at the

Thanks for that, a meeting report from Debian maintainer Steve McIntyre on

Ahoy,
I've been learning how to setup PXE booting to install an OS image on a
100% UEFI system (CSM completely disabled). I use Debian 8 as my DHCP
server (ISC DHCP) and as my TFTP server (tftpd-hpa). I also use the Debian
netboot installer to provide the PXE environment including the

Nicholas, I agree with you there. I don't know if it's intentional
but the links to the unofficial images do seem rather hidden.

There are user-level tools that handle this situation better (e.g.

I can't answer the rest of this email, but for this paragraph, you

This is a tale of two systems. One is a wheezy
installation and it's version of sox handles mp3 files nicely. It
can create them and appears to allow one to edit them. The
listing for /usr/bin/sox shows a size of somewhat above 63 KB and
a creation date of Dec 22 in 2014.

I looked at rsnapshot but its behavior is poor when you have lots of
