It is expected that you know how to type in a command, that is what is known as the "command prompt"
You can type

Code: Select all

help

, or just for fun, try typing

Code: Select all

whoami
Another use full command:

Code: Select all

man man
Did you read any of the Debian install documentation ?
https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/
I would suggest reading it, ALL very carefully, and after you understand
more about what you are doing, you could install it again, or you can
start installing some utilities, and a Window Manager, or Desktop Environment, etc . and
know how to set things up correctly, for example :
During installation updates via “Mirrors” where not possible. ( Reason unknown )
Probably because you did not have a internet connection,...
Yes I know it seems like a lot of documentation to read, but for
a beginner, that does not even know what the command prompt is,
much less anything about installing Debian, it is necessary to read
the documentation.


Also try this, and learn some : basic linux commands

From that prompt you can configure your system; looks like you need some sources:

https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList#Exa ... urces.list

Then you can use:

Code: Select all

# apt install tasksel && tasksel
deadbang
