Hi. I tried to use reportbug to um, report a bug, but I don't know what
package is at fault.
Briefly, I installed Debian 12 using debian-12.0.0-amd64-netinst.iso on
a Hewlett-Packard T620 thin client. The installation went all right and
the system booted into Bookworm. After doing some setup, I shut down
(correctly). Next time I started the machine, it indicated a hardware
failure. Machine would not respond to keys to invoke system info, BIOS
setup, or self-tests.
Tried again with a second instance of the T620. Same result, except this
time after the apparent hardware failure, I was able to reach the BIOS
setup and on the advice from an expert on Debian User Forums
("lewulff"), installed Debian 11, D-11 is working great. lewulff said
that he has noticed a difference in how Debian 12 vs. 11 works with UEFI.
I believe that the developers will want to fix this - maybe they're
already aware of the issue, but I don't know how to tell.
Best regards,
Will Stites
