The two memory have the following characteristics:

I don't think there is a Debian DVD iso I can use to install Debian
Bullseye.
I think I'll have to install Buster and then switch to Bullseye.
Is there a better option?
To my knowledge, there is a Bulleye installer available here:

My last doubt is if should use Debian 10 with KDE Plasma or Debian
Bullseye instead.

It's just more complete and tight. But there are some older systems I can't
really use it on. I don't NEED a massive window manager and apps, I was a

I would like to install Debian 10 with the KDE Plasma task
on a PC with 4 GB of RAM and Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 @ 2.33 GHz,
it doesn't have a GPU.

Thanks in ad

Yeah it will work, although it'll work a lot better if you can get an extra
4Gb off Ebay, I paid about £25.
