Debian 10.9.0- Buster Download and Instal on USB

This is posted by WiFi from a mobile broadband.
I do not want to name the service provider but I use Internet well past midnight, especially when I download a Linux image over 4.5 GiB.

Being a holiday or Back Poya day, I thought of using my dongle to download the iso image to my laptop which was given long Coranavirus respite.

I am using Debian KDE plasma and it does not show me the download speed but my rough calculation is 250 MiB in one hour.

So it is roughly 8 hour waiting to see the first of the 3 DVDs.
Luckily after midnight the download went up smoothly.

I hope I can install that in a USB stick.
Of course I have to erase the previous Debian 10.0.0 iso in the USB.

I have two Debian images installed in laptop after erasing the Microsoft Windows.

I could not erase Microsoft using Linux but used BSD for that purpose.

The Microsoft UEFI SCAM with OEM guys I have bypassed using my own techniques long before ESP partitioning was available.

This broadband is a Big Joke.

I warn you never to use Internet access and facilities while installing.

Pull out the Ethernet Wire even when the service provider says, it is lighteningly fast.

It is only a service gimmick and dongle or winkle is a farce.

I pulled out the Ethernet Wire nearly 80 feet long running over our roof which was defective due to over 12 years of exposure to elements ( I burned it leaving a small piece to check its internals but I do not have a crumpler to plug connecting pieces).

It, the Ethernet Wire did serve me well with my PC, now temporarily retired, with superb download speeds with over 300 Linux distribution downloads, now all retired except the Debian.

The cellphone has killed the Linux and Pine is still not available in Ceylon and the nifty new distribution for cellphone's, based on Ubuntu is one year away.

Well Debian is coming out with its 11 series  and I am not going to buy a new PC or laptop to install and test it.

But young guys should support Linus now in America and the New Desktop is going to beat both Apple and Microsoft.

Long Live Linux and it's community.

This wish goes to Ubuntu, too.

Running Update on Installation.

1. Use your laptop and make sure the battery is fully charged.

2. But connect the power plug for security.

3. Go to Debian site and download the 32 (obsolete) or  64 iso DVD for AMD, AMR or whatever.

4. There are 3 DVDs but I use only the first DVD.

5. Image is compressed and extract it to a download folder

6. Write the image to a DVD.
I usually prepare two DVDs.

One for me and one for friends who request me installing it and demonstration.

Ome is kept in my archive of Linux images.

7. Run the DVD.
You must set your BIOS or boot options to CD (USB first in my case).

8. Use the graphic installation don't try to be smart.

9. Use your language selection French or English or Greek.

No Sinhala or Tamil by the way.

10. Confirm root and user password.

11. When asked for installation say yes to use the entire disk or USB.

I partition the hard disk to over 12 or more  partitions  and that process is painful.

12. It uses ESP (UEFI boot option) and 6 more partition including SWAP space.

My USB is 16 GiB and over 9 GiB is my home partition.

It has 3.7 Python.
Linux kernel is 4.19.0.16, the latest STABLE.

Base installation is fast.

But I asked for all desktops on Tasktel request.

Use one or two desktops if you want a fast installation.

There are over 2000 files if you ask for all desktops and it takes few hours, if you ask for all.

I go to sleep and when I wake up it is all ready to use.

I kept my old 10.0.0.0 and 10 plus copies in my laptop and boot the USB for showoffs.
