hello, Masaru san, thank you for your kind words! Yes, our primary aim is the security, and at the moment we are satisfied with G505S security if it is flashed with coreboot opensource BIOS. Because we are confident that the remaining closed source binary firmwares of G505S could not spy on

Thanks J.B. Nicholson-Owens, I will give your suggestion a try. I don't need that docker, I actually thought I had deleted docker, but it still keeps trying to fetch that for some reason. I didn't know you could edit that, so it's nice to learn something new. I have commented that out

I agree 1% bundling/forcing an os onto a computer should be illegal. Though I also think hardware should be libre by default, not just software, and as for why I say by default, give the user the choice... if you don't, and people get upset, we will be back to square one, etc, etc...

The text installer fail, it's blocked during the downloading "libc6-udeb" packages, so it's impossible to install a Trisquel server or installation with Full-Disk Encryption (including /boot). It's a common issue? https://trisquel.info/en/issues/25533
