-*  If I install Debian, will it still be relatively easy to update the Asahi work as it develops?
+## Why has there been no kernel update?
+
+For Debian stable I'm currently unable to update the kernel due to the fact
+that the kernel requires new mesa packages and the new mesa package needs too
+many dependencies which are not in Debian stable and I'm not willing to add
+that many new packages. So I recommend that if you want the latest asahi
+kernel, mesa, sound and other packages, switch to testing and use Thomas
+Renards packages for testing. <https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Bananas>
+
+## How to enable spakers?
+
+Currently speakers are only supported on M1 air. Install the necessary packages:

+        apt update
+        apt upgrade -y
+        apt dist-upgrade -y
+        apt install -y alsa-ucm-conf-asahi speakersafetyd
+        reboot
+
+After the reboot I need to restart the speakersafetyd in order to hear sound out of the speakers:
+
+        sudo systemctl restart speakersafetyd
+
+## Does it work on M2?
+
+Yes, M3 is not yet supported.
+
+## Are you still maintaining this?

+Yes, I do and will continue doing this until there is an official Debian installer.

+## How do I compile zfs on apple silicon debian?
+
+- In order to build zfs you need the rust environment. So from the m1-debian
+  repository you have to run these scripts:
+
+        ./dependencies.sh
+        ./prepare_rust.sh
+
+- Prepare your zfs build environment. You need to replace
+  /home/sithglan/work/m1-debian with your path to
+  your m1-debian checkout:
+
+        export CARGO_HOME="/home/sithglan/work/m1-debian/build/cargo"
+        export RUSTUP_HOME="/home/sithglan/work/m1-debian/build/rust"
+        source "/home/sithglan/work/m1-debian/build/cargo/env"
+
+- Tell zfs which version of clang you use to compile the kernel:
+
+        export KERNEL_LLVM=-15
+
+- Checkout ZFS:
+
+        git clone https://github.com/openzfs/zfs
+        cd ./zfs
+        git checkout master
+
