Debian 13 UTM virtual machine

Did an install for debian 13 on my vm, and had it reboot (because it tells me to at the end with a continue button) and instead of letting me sign in, it prompts me to the graphical install. What’d i do wrong here?

Just turn it off or hard shut down. You won't hurt it Then remove the disk drive and start it up

I hope i didnt answer incorrectly Im pretty sure the easiest way to remove trhe install image is to set the storage to 0

ok so idk how to do it in UTM but this is the basic idea ill show it in vmware because that's what i have

All vms are kind of similar in a way so it shouldnt be hard to replicate it

the other major benefit is that the device is no longer tied to your vm so you can attach it to another VM and install debian on another VM along with just not wasting resources on your vm

so wait You remove the cd dvd When though Do you do it right before clicking continue and rebooting Or in the process of rebooting like right before it reboots

ok so shutdown the VM let it shut down normally then you can edit it as much as you want then start it back up again

BUT WHEN there is a reboot button prompted when debian installation has completed 😭

my lord ok so go up to the place where you turned on your vm and use that shutdown button force it to shutdown if you have to you should be doing this either before or after installation, typically not during

hey it tells me to remove the install image at the time so I gotta listen to debian its after installation however
