If you want to install a "develloper workstation" with cinnamon (LMDE5), this is where it happens.
1) Install Promox-ve 7.1 via iso
2) Connect to Proxmox-ve via ssh as root
3) Create a new main "source.list" type file as under LMDE5
4) Create "additional-repositories.list" file
5) Delete the old "source.list" file and "pve-enterprise.list"
6) Create an apt pref file for official-package-repositories
7) Create an apt pref file for official-extra-repositories
8) Add the LMDE5 ppa key
9) Update the repository list
10)Install "sudo" packages
11)Install "deb-multimedia-keyring" packages
12) Update the repository list
13) Configure your locale for langage and other, follow the steps
14) Add your user account
15) Add your user account to the sudo group
16)Add the sudo right to your user account via "visudo"
Add this line
17) Installation of the cinnamon interface and its dependencies
I had to change the method compared to LMDE4
18) Update the distribution
19)Reboot your computer
the installation has installed many games by default, I advise you to remove them if you do not want them. you can do it via synaptic by choosing by category it goes very quickly.
If you want up-to-date apps, I recommend using flatpak. it is managed by gnome-software for the installation of applications and updates.
Optional bluetooth:
if your bluetooth and wifi card are not recognized despite the installation of the "pve-firmware" package, you will have to do it manually.
1) check the version of the "firmware-iwlwifi" package available at the bullseye repositorie:
https://packages.debian.org/fr/bullseye/firmware-iwlwifi
2) Download the "firmware-iwlwifi" package (replace "XXXXXXXX" by the version of your package):
3) Extraction of the files from the "firmware-iwlwifi" package:
4) Copy of the files previously extracted:
5) Update "initramfs"
6) Reboot

If you use KDE application install this packages before
