The weekly builds of the live ISOs should have the Calamares installer: Index of /cdimage/weekly-live-builds/amd64/iso-hybrid
What’s wrong with the regular debian-installer though?
If you mean that very oldschool looking one that you can boot into? Custom partitioning is much easier with Calamares. I’m not even sure if it’s possible to create btrfs partitions with that other one.
And yes, by now they may have it. Back when I tried it was missing, most likely because calamares wasn’t available in testing at that point for whatever reason.
Yeah. I like the oldschool one. There’s a graphical mode but it’s essentially just a graphical version of the text-based installer. It does support btrfs but I’m not sure if it supports some of the more advanced features of btrfs like subvolumes. I’m using ext4, LVM, and encryption (LUKS) and the regular installer handles that fine. I’ll have to give Calamares a try the next time I install Debian
