Thanks for the reply. Yeah, that's what I would have assumed, but I try not to assume. I will install now.

I have an HP laptop that suddenly stopped offering Wi-Fi. I bought an Alfa AWUS036ACM which uses a MediaTek MT7612U chipset. It works fine with Windows 10. I'm tired of Microsoft games, so I'm gonna install Linux on it. I tried Debian 12.9, which recognized the Alfa adapter during installation. I'd like to rid my life of systemd. I tried upgrading to Devuan from Debian, but that was an ugly experience, ending with a system that wouldn't boot. I will start fresh with Devuan. Does Daedalus include the driver for the MediaTek MT7612U chipset or do I need to first download it from Debian and have it on a USB flash drive?
