The steps in http://dashohoxha.fs.al/docs/testing-debian-edu-with-lxd.html describe what I have done so far. I noticed that the combination `PROFILE=Main-Server DESKTOP=none bash -x tools/debian-edu-bless` gives an error (the one that I have described above). however if I add the Workstation profile, and a desktop, there is no error: `PROFILE=Main-Server,Workstation DESKTOP=lxde bash -x tools/debian-edu-bless` So, the good news is that so far I have been able to install the main-server (I hope correctly). Now I just have to read the docs and to follow the rest of configuration and installation steps. I am going to continue after a couple of weeks, since it seems that people are having a vacation soon.

And sorry for the belated reply. I am trying to install a gateway, as described here: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Bullseye/Requirements#Internet_router As a first step, I am trying to install the Minimal profile of DebianEdu, to be followed by: `tools/configure-edu-gateway --firewall ` For installing the Minimal profile I am using these commands (in a minimal debian 11 system): apt install debian-edu-config cd /usr/share/debian-edu-config/ PROFILE=Minimal DESKTOP=none bash -x tools/debian-edu-bless However I get an error like this: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) + /usr/lib/education-tasks/edu-tasksel-setup teardown + echo 'error: installing packages failed' error: installing packages failed + exit 1 I may try to debug it, following the steps at: https://salsa.debian.org/debian-edu/debian-edu-config/-/blob/master/share/debian-edu-config/tools/debian-edu-bless but it is easier to ask somebody for help. If there is someone at DebConf, who might be able to help, I would appreciate it if we try to fix it together. Regards, Dashamir

See https://salsa.debian.org/debian-edu/debian-edu-config/-/blob/master/share/debian-edu-config/tools/debian-edu-bless . lines 36-40. So running the command PROFILE=Main-Server bash -x tools/debian-edu-bless could be your next step. -- Kind regards, Frans Spiesschaert

The first step should be to install "debian-edu-config", but then it is not quite clear what steps to follow or what scripts to call. Thanks anyway for the suggestion. Dashamir

Installing a DebianEdu server on Debian
Dear DebianEdu Devs, Recently I have been testing FUSS using virtual machines. These are my notes on it: - http://dashohoxha.fs.al/docs/testing-fuss-with-lxd.html FUSS is a system based on debian that is used on some schools in Italy: - https://fuss.bz.it/ - https://www.sfscon.it/talks/fuss-16-years-of-digital-sustainability-at-school-and-still-counting/ - https://fuss-tech-guide.readthedocs.io/it/latest/ It is more convenient for me to do the installation of the server starting from a basic/standard debian system, rather than installing it from an iso. I would also like to test a DebianEdu server, but I cannot find any docs on how to install it starting from a standard debian system. Is it possible to install it like this, or using an iso is the only way possible? Kind regards, Dashamir
