Debian install on Windows 11 WSL2
Debian was installed and running fine on my Dell PC and then .. it wasn't. Everything indicated that the files were still on my PC, Debian was listed in the Apps list, but nothing happened when I tried to run it. So, being a daredevil and not very smart, I reinstalled it. That made things even worse...

I have Debian running under WSL on Windows 11. This is a brand new installation and I am trying to install Flathub. After overcoming a series of obstacles, i.e. no sources.list file, I am stymied by the following message that I get when I try to run the following command: openssl req -newkey rsa:204...

Re: Install Debian on Chromebook
Eureka! Yesterday afternoon I stumbled upon the solution. The trick is to use "sudo crouton -t kde -r buster -n debian". Simple, eh!
Phil - an especial thanks to you.

Re: Install Debian on Chromebook
I have read that document a couple of times and don't really understand what it is trying to tell me. Thanks for your help and patience. I will keep working at this (it has become a challenge I can't give in to). I think I am going back to step one and do a powerwash and set up developer's mode one ...

Re: Install Debian on Chromebook
I have no idea which partition Crouton is using. I just run the "sudo crouton -r..." and get the error message. I removed the SD card and got exactly the same response.

Re: Install Debian on Chromebook
My 128GB SD card is partitioned, 100GB is ext4 and the rest is FAT32. I have no idea what ext4 is. When I was researching how to install Debian on an SD card I found a source that said I needed the card formatted as ext4 and gave instructions on how to do that, so I did. Ultimately, I would prefer t...

Re: Install Debian on Chromebook
I did exactly as you requested. Even to the extent of deleting the version of Crouton that I had and downloading a new copy using your reference. Still can't install Debian. I tried to install Buster using "sudo crouton -r buster -t kde". After telling me that it was downloading the latest...

Re: Install Debian on Chromebook
We are all praying that 2021 will be a return to some sort of normalcy at least. Zoom has been a tremendous boon. We visit with our kids and grandkids every week as well as our siblings. I haven't seen my sisters so much in 40 years. I did a powerwash into developer's mode so time ago. I am supposin...

Re: Install Debian on Chromebook
Thank you for the prompt response and on Christmas Day no less. I hope you are having a wonderful Christmas. I don't quite understand a couple of points in your response. First, is there any way to correct the way the SD card is mounted. I have taken no explicit actions to mount the card in the crou...
