2022-02-13: nvme1n1p1 - apt - install blueman (then log out and log in) so I can connect a bluetooth mouse. apt - install openssh-server, then start the service via

$ sudo systemctl start sshd

so I can log in remotely.

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.
