CDROM

10.

There are two different netinst CD images which can be used to install &releasename; with the &d-i;. These images are intended to boot from CD and install additional packages over a network, hence the name 'netinst'. The difference between the two images is that on the full netinst image the base packages are included, whereas you have to download these from the web if you are using the business card image. If you'd rather, you can get a full size CD image which will not need the network to install. You only need the first CD of the set.

11.

Download whichever type you prefer and burn it to a CD. <phrase arch="x86">To boot the CD, you may need to change your BIOS configuration, as explained in <xref linkend="bios-setup"/>.</phrase> <phrase arch="powerpc"> To boot a PowerMac from CD, press the <keycap>c</keycap> key while booting. See <xref linkend="boot-cd"/> for other ways to boot from CD. </phrase>

Floppy

13.

If you can't boot from CD, you can download floppy images to install Debian. You need the <filename>floppy/boot.img</filename>, the <filename>floppy/root.img</filename> and one or more of the driver disks.

14.

The boot floppy is the one with <filename>boot.img</filename> on it. This floppy, when booted, will prompt you to insert a second floppy &mdash; use the one with <filename>root.img</filename> on it.

15.

If you're planning to install over the network, you will usually need the <filename>floppy/net-drivers-1.img</filename>. For PCMCIA or USB networking, and some less common network cards, you will also need a second driver floppy, <filename>floppy/net-drivers-2.img</filename>.

16.

If you have a CD, but cannot boot from it, then boot from floppies and use <filename>floppy/cd-drivers.img</filename> on a driver disk to complete the install using the CD.

17.

Floppy disks are one of the least reliable media around, so be prepared for lots of bad disks (see <xref linkend="unreliable-floppies"/>). Each <filename>.img</filename> file you downloaded goes on a single floppy; you can use the dd command to write it to /dev/fd0 or some other means (see <xref linkend="create-floppy"/> for details). Since you'll have more than one floppy, it's a good idea to label them.
