Debian 11 Bullseye Setup Problems Error Report



Dear Debian Team,

1) first (always) say something positive

being a big fan of Debian since aprox 10 years

thanks for all your efforts making Debian a easy to install (universal) reliable system, that lowers the bar for users trying to go Open Source and GNU Linux and FreeSoftware (a migration via OSX might be a good transition from Windows)

today was the day trying out the new Debian 11 with LTS (LTS is a reason for users consider switching to Ubuntu, so good choice there)

2) the problems:

E1: (error1) problem: Debian 11 won't install

tested on:

S1: (suggestion1) there needs to be an easy way to report errors

S.1.) include a "report problem" button, that automatic generates a report to store away any error logs (and dmesg) that is generated during the setup on a usb drive, for easy upload to https://debian.org/report-a-problem

or:

S2.) (even better if network works) include a "report problem" button, that automatic generates a report and uploads it to debian.org for further investigation (easily accessible as a link like https://debian.org/errors/report/2021-08-17_11-57_lenovo_x60s_128903786351782539)

Q1: (question1): why is there nor vi nor less included in the setup?

makes debugging things very very hard

please checkout this wonderful script that should run on some console during setup per default

https://dwaves.de/2017/06/15/linux-monitor-all-logs-in-real-time-d-follow-all-show-changes-to-log-files-under-varlog/

which would display all errors (currently via ccze) nicely in RED

for easy visual detection of problems

PS: thanks for rss feed btw this app https://dwaves.de/2021/06/16/how-to-read-news-in-the-21st-century-apps-rss-feeds-turns-the-users-android-based-device-into-an-independent-open-source-based-news-aggregator-that-respects-the-users-privacy/ allows nice following of news such as https://www.debian.org/News/2021/20210814
