Yes, but it's significantly less automatic. Testing distros on an old laptop, Debian wouldn't support the network card out of the box and I had to use USB tethering from my phone to get the necessary drivers off the internet. Ubuntu just had them in the image and installed them automatically.

Was this with the most recent version of Debian? Bookworm includes non-free firmware with the installer now.

Looking at release dates, just a couple days before Bookworm came out. I'll have to try that one.
