Thanks osprey. I'll give it a spin tomorrow I'm booted into Debian 12 now.

Be careful rooting your phone. My Linux master turned his tablet into a brick trying to install Debian on it. You'll have to unlock the bootloader unless I am mistaken. See the link below. Here's the instruction for Ubuntu Touch on Android. HTH https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/installer/...

Yesterday I changed the font twice and applied it. Clicked ok and for some reason changing the font hasn't worked. The headings along the top of the app are way to small for me. The KDE Doc's for KDevelop are blinding white and after a few moments it generates eye strain. If I continue to read...

That will come in handy when I set up my server in the future. Thanks, brother! Have you had success since following those instructions? And, was your download of pkg's 50 Gig's or more?

You're welcome. Yes, it will take a while. It took me about 3-5 years to get well versed with running Debian and knowing it's package management system. Then, 5 years to get really good at running Slackware. Once you Slack you'll never go back.

Yes, when you can. Thanks!

Refreshing indeed brother, I agree! I look forward to building a Linux distro too. it's part of my summer project.

Hi! & Welcome to Linux.org :) Obtaining knowledge is the first thing, Luxury that you'll need. Once you have that, as time progresses wisdom will set in. As you use Linux and try things to find out how they work knowledge and wisdom will work together with the understanding that you get...

BTW, you have a extra pound sign in this line of your mirrors list. deb https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main contrib non-free # non-free-firmware Not sure if you wanted that there?

Thanks for showing me that I was wrong. Correction these days isn't received so quickly. The official Debian url to the mirror for your operating systems regular updates and upgrades are listed in your mirrors list, that's clear by looking at it. I didn't know that the PATH to the sources...

Where you able to solve your Grub issue Ultma?

You're welcome- Me too friend, BTDT many times. What's important is that we learn from our mistakes. And, put away the baseball bat. If you don't have the knowledge or think of something you can't pull the rabbit out of the hat.

You're welcome. Were you able to re-install Grub or otherwise fix the issue?

How would we know if the job belongs to the mirror administrator? I'm thinking there may be another way to download the tar.gz needed:-:) I don't have server experience however, @KGIII does. He would know what arguments/strings should be included in the configuration file for the mirror's list...

Looking again more closely I see these things that I did not see yesterday.:) 1. That this line in the sources list should not be there. Removing it will prove helpful:- /etc/apt/sources.list.d/official-package-repositories.list 2. This line in the Mirror's List in post #15 does not look...
