I installed it last Friday on a new sata 500gb evo ssd with dram cache using full disk encryption, entire disk defaults, and it worked fine although it took about an hour the disk with random data. It may have not been the RC0 with the uefi bug bit I didn't notice anything weird. I did blizt that drive for proxmox 7.4 so I didn't use it much. But I was able to decrypt, login, do all the updates, install some flatpaks and AppImage programs. Debian 12 is nice. Honestly, the based on ubuntu distros (pop/mint) could easily move to it and noone would notice (and that is a good thing.)
