Install of debian 11

Downlad debian from debian.org the latest stable version for 32 bits systems.
Use balenaEtcher to create a bootable usb.
To boot from external media you have to press Esc during the BIOS boot splash screen and select the right installation medium.
Complete the installation and upgrade the system :
Pass to root user :
$ su -
and :

# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade

For all installation operation to run with root account use :

# su - and not $ su command. To avoid some lost packages.

Setting Up a Basic Firewall

Install ufw :

# apt-get update
# apt-get install ufw
You list all available application profiles by typing:

# ufw app list
We need to make sure that the firewall allows SSH connections so that we can log back in next time. We can allow these connections by typing:

# ufw allow MY_SSH_PORT
Afterwards, we can enable the firewall by typing:

# ufw enable
You can see that SSH connections are still allowed by typing:

# ufw status
Or, to see rules numbers :
# ufw status numbered
Then we can delete the rule One by typing :

# ufw delete 1

SSH server can be intalled on debian installation process. If not, you may install it manually :
