holy shit you're retarded

The EXACT same thing happens with that iso.

muhminimul shits don't know how to take care of themselves and their body is going to be dilapidated shit, just like you think you're a special snowflake for choosing the nothing version and then complain it has no drivers. What do you think the space on the big iso was for. if it worked, next you'd complain that the netinstall didn't come with a desktop

If the netinstall version has no nonfree firmware, and the one that includes nonfree firmware does the exact same thing, why the fuck would the bigger iso work? I'm not even using wifi. No other distro I've tried out has had even one second's worth of issues regarding my connection. Yet the supposed good one can't even give me a connection.

I have never seen any ethernetcard ('wadda'ya call it?) that didn't work with the standardshit.

Good luck finding some extraordinary drivers for this.

>extract it to a FAT32 drive
dd that shit you dingus
FAT32 doesn't have symlink support
the way you extract it just skips them, leaving shit half done

you think you have it bad OP?

try having wifi as your only option and Debian fat ISO not having your particular non-free wifi driver

eventually got it to work by pretty much bending backwards
recently learned that switching to another wifi network doesn't just werk but is also done by hand in the terminal

Debian is a piece of shit

>>59806394
did you even read the fucking OP

as soon as any of your hardware is deemed non-free (which you usually have no way of knowing), that distro will start actively working against you

connecting to a wifi network can be done in no time via the terminal

"but ill have to search for a solution online and then actually press buttons on my keyboard"
buy a macbook

>connecting to a wifi network can be done in no time via the terminal
Irrelevant, because that already means that it doesn't 'just werk' like I'd have wanted it to

I'm well aware that it takes 2 very simple commands

>>59807855
again, buy a macbook
if you're too incompetent to connect to wifi via CLI then you're not fit to use even debian

>>59807877
fuck off autistic archbabby
distros that just werk certainly exist, just not the hunk of shit that is called Debian

>>59807894
Arch just works senpai
If OP was using Arch the archiso kernel and dhcpcd would automatically connect him to the internet without having to type any commands
If you're wifi all you need is wifi-menu

>>59807894
I use debian and connected to wifi with a terminal command that took me a few minutes to figure out online
cry more macbaby

sounds pretty enticing
