(do not select 'allow login as root' during installation)
> sudo apt install git && git clone https://github.com/nimadez/cli.git
2- apt-src-mirror.sh find the fastest debian mirrors

4- gnome-install.sh minimal gnome-core only, no firefox, no games and stuff (all free)

- Installation takes 30 minutes but may increase to an hour due to the speed of the mirror
- Reinstalling the OS improves performance, and stability in the "testing" branch,
one of the advantages of linux is the /home partition, makes it easier to reinstall the OS
- Final debian core is 3.5 GB, total 5.5 GB with gnome and packages installed
- Memory usage in idle mode is less than 1.5 GB, with CPU and GPU around 30C
* If security is important to you, you should stick with bookworm and install free software
apt-list.sh contrib
apt-list.sh non-free
apt-list.sh non-free-firmware
