Comments/Problems:
When trying to install using the debian non-graphical installer, initial boot
went fine, network card was not detected due to the kernel not supporting it
(mediatek 7902) but using a wired connection let me connect to internet and
pass that step.
However, when detecting disks, the only disk available for install was the usb
drive I had the installer on - it did not detect the 256gb UFS SSD.
The SSD had a partition with windows 11 (which I shrunk to leave free space for
the debian). I disabled Secure Boot and Fast Start on the UEFI BIOS, and still
the debian installer didn't see the SSD.
I tried booting from the Live XFCE version of debian 12 stable, and
surprisingly, once on the Live system it detected the windows partition (it
showed up on the desktop as an encrypted drive) and when running the calamares
installer, it detected the SSD. Thanks to this I was able to install debian.
So, using the same debian ISO (the one from the link I put here when prompted),
the debian installer couldn't see the SSD, but calamares from Debian Live
detected the SSD.
Apart from the Debian 12 Live Xfce image, I also tried the testing image
installer, as well as the image that has the developing version of the
installer and that installs debian 13 testing (trixie).
None of the installers, no matter the image, detected my SSD.
Please make sure that any installation logs that you think would
be useful are attached to this report. (You can find them in the
installer system in /var/log/ and later on the installed system
under /var/log/installer.) Please
