Post Syndicated from jzb original https://lwn.net/Articles/1046757/

Debian developer Simon Josefsson has announced
the Debian
Libre Live Images
project, to allow installing Debian without any
non-free software:

Since the 2022 decision on non-free firmware, the official images
for bookworm and trixie contains non-free software.

The Debian Libre Live Images project provides Live ISO images for
Intel/AMD-compatible 64-bit x86 CPUs (amd64) built without any
non-free software, suitable for running and installing Debian. The
images are similar to the Debian Live Images
distributed as Debian
live images
.

He does warn that this is a first public release, so there may be
problems. See the current
list of known issues
before trying the images out.
