hi,

I just installed a Debian linux without desktop environment, because I want to develop my own Linux Distribution. And I get stuck, I have installed the wayland and gnome, but I don't know it won't started. So, i want my Linux using the wayland and gnome. So, how could I solve this problem?

The wayland had been installed by this command : sudo apt-get install weston xwayland

If you just installed it, why not just re-install but use the desktop version instead?
