Since installing Debian 12 along with the confusion related to different DE's - I've had tech solving fatigue every day; during this I did seem to discover a bug in the installation iso; I'll spell it out at the bottom in case someone is familiar enough and motivated to pass it on to the Developers. A minute or so looking at the guidelines suggested it would take one or more hours to pass on the two lines of relevant info. I get that all relevant details need to be included (usually) in order to isolate the issue so maybe the setup is already minimal but nonetheless a major hurdle.
ISSUE: On a Lenovo 100S 11IBY hybrid Laptop with an Intel Atom 1.33gHz processor; 2GB of RAM; I added a Swap partition during installation; it was there but not recognized by the system; I'd previously used Peppermint OS (Debian version) and the same thing had occurred. This sort issue can be particularly vexing; ie lack of RAM may be indicated by certain problems but a non-expert would likely check the disk and discover that there is more than adequate Swap.
