I'm trying to run Debian Live 12.6.0 on a computer that I recently assembled, a Supermicro X13SAZ-F with an Intel i9-14900T. This is really my first time seriously trying to use Debian Live.
I choose "Live system (amd64)". It boots, I briefly see a couple lines with the TPM warning being the second one, then it switches to a blue "debian 12" logo screen for a minute. Then the monitor goes to sleep, and that seems to be the end of it. Sometimes I see a glimpse of a desktop environment before it sleeps. Mouse movements and key presses don't wake it.
Ctrl-Alt-Del works to reboot, or at least shut down, the system, but even that takes about a minute to take effect. I briefly see the Debian logo screen again just before the shutdown.
Live system (amd64 fail-safe mode)
If I instead choose "Live system (amd64 fail-safe mode)", it takes about six minutes to start booting (regardless of whether I hit "enter" to boot). I then see the boot messages, followed by a desktop environment. But after a few seconds, the screen turns off, and once again I can't get it back on.
The monitor and keyboard are connected via a KVM switch. The USB mouse is connected directly. Moving the monitor cable directly to the computer changes nothing.
It all runs very slowly for being on a 24-core processor. I find this alone to be strange. Does Debian Live choose to run on only one core?
- Earlier I ran Memtest86+ successfully.
- I haven't added any storage to the system yet: no HDDs, SDDs, NVMe cards; it just has its 64GB of DRAM. I'm trying to verify that it can run Debian, as a next stage after the memory test.
- I reset the BIOS settings to the factory defaults.
- The USB stick, on which I have Debian, is found and it boots. I get the Debian Live menu.
