Hello debian lemmies,

If anybody is interested, I've made an alternative debian installer targeted for laptops and workstation PCs. It has some nifty features over the official installer, have a look.

For btrfs how does the subvolume layout look? For example in ubuntu it has @ and @home which is very convenient.

Is there plans to add other cpu support?

Such as?

i386? meh.

arm64? I am a big fan, if there was a viable laptop/workstation PC with a good linux support, I would be first in line to buy one. Apple silicon? Last time I checked, it kind of works with a dedicated distro (asahi) and half of the things I take for granted doesn't work yet (such as external monitor.)
