http://www.debian.org/ has two important links for you: The download site: http://www.debian.org/CD/http-ftp/#stable The usual way is to just download the small 'netinst.iso' and to download the required software packages once the initial base system is installed, but of course you could also download one of the three 'CD-1's. The installation instructions: http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/installmanual You don't have to read the whole of the document. The installer is rather good and will ask you sensible questions. Think about how to format your drive. Debian requires about 10 GB, depending on how much software and data you plan for. If you are unsure, you should consult the installation manual. > I have a AMD turion64 x2 processor I would recommend to stick with the Intel x86 (i386) architecture (from the download site). You can install a amd64 kernel, and the installer will probably select it automatically for you. Good luck and welcome to the free (software) world!
