+Great! Here's a step-by-step guide to download, verify the hash, and properly set up Conda on your Debian 12 system:
+
+1. Download the Miniconda installer:
+   - Open a terminal and navigate to the directory where you want to download the installer
+   - Run the following command to download the latest Miniconda installer for Linux 64-bit:
+     ```
+     wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
+     ```
+
+2. Verify the hash of the downloaded installer:
+   - Run the following command to calculate the SHA256 hash of the downloaded installer:
+     ```
+     sha256sum Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
+     ```
+   - Compare the calculated hash with the expected hash provided in the Miniconda hash information. For the latest version (Conda 24.3.0 Python 3.12.2), the expected hash is:
+     ```
+     96a44849ff17e960eeb8877ecd9055246381c4d4f2d031263b63fa7e2e930af1
+     ```
+   - If the calculated hash matches the expected hash, proceed with the installation. If not, download the installer again.
+
+3. Install Miniconda:
+   - Run the following command to make the installer executable:
+     ```
+     chmod +x Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
+     ```
+   - Run the installer:
+     ```
+     ./Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
+     ```
+   - Follow the installation prompts and accept the license agreement
+   - Choose the installation location (default is recommended)
+   - Allow the installer to initialize Conda and add it to your shell's PATH
+
+4. Initialize Conda:
+   - Close and reopen your terminal for the changes to take effect, or run the following command to refresh your shell's environment:
+     ```
+     source ~/.bashrc
+     ```
+   - Run the following command to initialize Conda for your shell (e.g., bash or zsh):
+     ```
+     conda init bash
+     ```
+     or
+     ```
+     conda init zsh
+     ```
+
+5. Verify the installation:
+   - Run the following command to verify that Conda is installed and working properly:
+     ```
+     conda --version
+     ```
+   - You should see the version of Conda installed (e.g., conda 24.3.0).
+
+6. Update Conda (optional):
+   - Run the following command to update Conda to the latest version:
+     ```
+     conda update conda
+     ```
+
+By following these steps, you will have downloaded the Miniconda installer, verified its integrity using the hash, installed Miniconda on your Debian 12 system, and initialized Conda for your shell.
+
+You can now start using Conda to create and manage environments, install packages, and run Python and Jupyter Notebooks.
+
+Remember to replace the hash value with the appropriate one for the specific version of Miniconda you are downloading.
+
+Let me know if you have any further questions!
