In addition to the official Debian release ('Stable'), there are two
rolling releases that contain fairly up-to-date software, but by
definition are less reliable than Stable. The user takes on some
responsibility for fixing breakages.

Indeed, and also many Debian derivatives are sources of useful help and
information (e.g. Ubuntu, Kali, Knoppix). They are of course not
identical to the base Debian, but generally have a great deal in common
with it, and much of the documentation is valid. Knoppix is
particularly valuable for identifying hardware problems with
installation of a base Debian distribution.
