Subj : Debian looking for testers with Apple M1/M2 machines To : All From : LWN.net Date : Wed Jul 02 2025 16:45:08 Debian looking for testers with Apple M1/M2 machines Date: Wed, 02 Jul 2025 15:32:53 +0000 Description: Debian's Bananas team has put out a call for people with Apple M1 or M2 systems to help test Debian on those machines: The Bananas Team has set up an installer at with images for GNOME, KDE and console installations. While we'd like to build an actual Debian installer sooner or later (we may need a heads-up from the Debian Images team for that), at this time we only provide an asahi-type installer, which installs both the "bootloader" and the OS partitions to disk from the network (as opposed to only installing the bootloader and then letting you install Debian using a d-i USB stick). We haven't forked Trixie from Testing yet, so what you'll get is Debian Testing quite deep into the freeze. ====================================================================== Link to news story: https://lwn.net/Articles/1028224/ --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet UK HUB @ hub.uk.erb.pw (1337:1/100) .
