As others have said: you need to use jigdo-lite rather than jigdo-file. Download the netinst<dot>template and netinst<dot>Jigdo files from https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-cd/ as below: https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-cd/debian-12.7.0-amd64-netinst.jigdo https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-cd/debian-12.7.0-amd64-netinst.template Run jigdo-lite in a terminal as root It will prompt you for the location of the jigdo file - probably something like /home/gene/Downloads/debian-12.7.0-amd64.jigdo It should prompt you for the location of a Debian mirror - give it a URL for your nearest Debian mirror or http://deb.debian.org/debian/ It will look in the directory you gave for the .jigdo file to find the .template and should not need to redownload this. It should then "just work" - I've just been doing exactly this to check.
