Steps to get Debian 10 “Buster” running on your c100p with a full LXDE Desktop! You can use the Console Environment image from this site if you want a barebones “console” experience and you are an advanced user. This image gets you to only the LXDE desktop. I have not added additional programs like LibreOffice etc. You can do that yourself with the trusty sudo apt-get install
command.
Behold the LXDE Desktop in all its glory (Using plank for the dock, Papirus-Light for the icon theme)
Put the c100p in "Developer Mode" and “Enable booting from External Storage”
You can download the ~1.28GB image here.
I use Balena Etcher (Windows, Linux, MacOS) to write the images to the SD-Card. I also use Win32DiskImager on Windows to read and write images. You can also use the good old “dd” command: dd bs=4M if=</path/to/img> of=</disk/device>
if you are old school.
Note: The SD-Card MUST be 8GB or larger!!

(Windows key or Command key on a Mac)I started with the Debian Console Image. The steps below got me to the Default Debian LXDE Gui:
