DebianOn is an effort to document how to install, configure and use Debian on some specific hardware. Therefore potential buyers would know if that hardware is supported and owners would know how get the best out of that hardware.

The purpose is not to duplicate the Debian Official Documentation, but to document how to install Debian on some specific hardware.

If you need help to get Debian running on your hardware, please have a look at our user support channels where you may find specific channels (mailing list, IRC channel) dedicated to certain types of hardware.

Important Notes

This laptop model doesn't include CD DVD drive. As such, it is necessary to prepare the Debian installation with a pendrive. To access the booting configurations, power-up the laptop by pressing F2 (bios setup) or F12 (boot menu).

This computer comes with UEFI (that replaced BIOS), and also with SECURE BOOT, both of these implementations involve additional considerations, and both works with Debian Buster.

Installing the System with official netinst ISO requires a cable internet connection, WiFi connection does not work without firmware-iwlwifi. I recommend the DVD1 ISO, so you can install the system and deal with iwlwifi later.
