Re: Running Debian on an AMD Ryzen system

Hi, Sam.

Unless you go for the "G" variant of Ryzen (with embedded GPU(, you should be good to go with no special care if you use the current "testing".

If you decide to use "G" as I did, you should probably opt for this kernel:

I would value feedback from anyone on this list who has been running
Debian on an AMD Ryzen system. I have gone back through list posts for a
year and cannot find anything on this subject.

I am running the testing stream and am looking to upgrade a 10-year-old PC
which I use for work. Having had good experiences with AMD processors in
the past - my current box has a K6-2 chip - I would prefer to go with a
processor from the same company.

If anyone does respond, could you please copy me in? I am not subscribed
to the list.

Thanks,
Sam
