2022-02-13: I connected up a usb-c to usb-A and HDMI adapter, inserted a Debian 11.2 live usb stick and booted from it by pressing F12. everything worked, including wireless, so I installed gparted, created a 250 GB partition on drive nvme1n1 and installed Debian on it by selecting to replace that partition. That worked.
