Just a hint to the OP. He was talking about 2 versions. I did find 3 ....

Its up to him to try them one by one.

Looks like Synaptic wants to fetch version 114, while I get

# apt list chromium
Auflistung… Fertig
chromium/stable-security 120.0.6099.224-1~deb12u1 amd64
chromium/stable-security 120.0.6099.224-1~deb12u1 i386

# apt policy chromium

Maybe you just need to run an apt update on the root console before, or tell Synaptic to refresh the repos.

Ladies and gentlemen, calm down, get your emotions down.

I don't care if the quote button is still available or not. I can use the quote function the way it I want to use it.

Devuan is a great deriviate of Debian w/o systemd, and nothing more, it won't save the world. The Devuan team is small and just capable of doing a great job of supplying replacements for some packages that need alternatives. But they can't save the FOSS world from changing. And changes not related to systemd that drip down from Debian may simply need to be accepted (e.g. this su - issue, usrmerge ... ). And the Devuan team is not responsible for Window managers, X11, and other topics that are requested.

I am very happy Devuan exists.

This forum is a user forum that is supposed to help users, and nothing that is relevant to coding and design of software.

If I speak for myself, I am a hardware engineer. I was happy about writing one or the other XLS macro during my business life. I would never be able to code anything more complicated than such things. And I guess we have 99% of contributors here that are sort of the same, mainly users. Don't bitch at the moderators.

Just my two cents ...

openrc is nothing but some sort of overhead on sysvinit. Give those scripts a try, I guess they will work alright.

The path. Thats why you get command not found.

There was a change in Debian some releases ago that moved the su command into a different package and changed the behaviour. I think there is a hint in the Buster/Beowulf release notes.

How did you try to get root access? A simple su or a su -? Give the

~$ su - 

a try.

Replace "$(lsb_release -cs)" with bookworm.

Is that netbook one of this very new designs? Then it is possible that its an uefi only bios, no more CSM mode. I own such a laptop manufactured Dec 2020, an Acer Aspire 5.

The installation media has to be booted either in legacy mode or uefi mode, one medium for both installation methods. This mode determines the grub installation method.
One way to do that could be the boot override option. On my X570 boards this is the F8 key, on my laptop F12. I see there a USB stick twice. As example one entry "Toshiba 8G", a second time the same stick as "UEFI Toshiba 8G". Guess what that means.

Another more easy way could be the use of Ventoj. That tells you if its booted in legacy or in (u)efi mode.

To make sure you have booted the stick in efi mode fsmithred's hint can be used for a crosscheck.

What you call SoftwareMGR is no Cinnamon package. Can't find a trace in Synaptic. You need to dig the WWW yourself for its origin and the boundary conditions it requires to work.

My advise: use Synaptic, that works on every of the large DEs.

No. daedalus main is present in line #1 and line #9 (counting every single line including the ones without contents). The order of the first 3 and last 3 lines is slightly different, but since parts of the info is present twice you get the warning.

I would recommend to add "contrib non-free non-free-firmware" to the first 3 lines for the full daedalus repos, and to delete all the rest from line 5 to the end. One empty line is required on the end of the file. I am running my PCs this way.
