Re: new computer and debian-bullseye

Well, I told thinkpenguin to install with speech and how to do that and apparently my instructions were not followed.  This computer cost a large chunk of cheese too.  Maybe tomorrow we can correct the bios so the dvd boots ahead of nvme and then I can clean this mess.

I didn't install debian, thinkpenguin did that.  As of now it's on nvme

and won't boot from a dvd yet so I can't wipe their mess and install

anything else correctly.  Any more computers from them come without an

operating system so we cut down on mistakes.

How did you install Debian?

I put espeak-ng and

You can 'purge' any pkgs that you do not need.

Instead of purging, I would suggest reinstalling from scratch.
