    I’m not sure I know what you mean by diagnosing, but it’s usually a good idea to use the same distro you’re having trouble with.

      Diagnosing hardware issues, which doesn’t necessarily need the same distro.

      True. And use chroot ;) then you can apt update, etc. If the problem is on the distro itself (e.g. not a failing hard drive)
