Just got an M1 and can boot the install USB for Ubuntu but not for Debian. Tried a bunch of different things but nothing works, it just shows a black screen with a solid white dash at the top. Any idea what I need to do? The BIOS says "AB1 0.17 x64". Is there a firmware update for this that will allow me to use a Linux boot USB? Why can I boot Ubuntu Live USB but not Debian? I need Debian, thanks.

I installed debian linux on the M1 using the firmware testing version but wifi and bluetooth are not working.
I'm using lan.
in the picture below the list of all the hardware errors and firmware bugs at linux startup at this time.
intel firmware is present but doesn't install correctly.
