The second alpha release of the installer for the next major Debian release, “Bullseye”. The release is expected in mid-2021.
Key changes in the installer compared to :
- Linux kernel updated to version 5.4;
- Templates for information blocks about setting the system clock, highlighting a freshly installed system in the boot menu, and incorrectly entering IP addresses have been updated;
- Added check of tasksel installation (typical sets of packages for various distribution installation modes) to pkgsel, regardless of its priority. Added a debconf template that allows you to completely skip tasksel (installation and request for selecting standard sets), while maintaining access to other pkgsel features;
- When installing with a dark theme, the high contrast mode is enabled;
- Added support for compiz ezoom (a magnifying glass that allows people with poor vision to see details);
- Adjusted the use of multiple consoles - if active , then instead of launching several consoles in parallel, only one priority console is launched;
- In systemd, udev-udeb uses the file 73-usb-net-by-mac.link;
- Added input, kvm and render to the list of reserved usernames (udev.postinst adds them as system groups);
- Added support for Librem 5 and OLPC XO-1.75 devices.
