A.2. Asentimen käynnistys

For some quick links to installation images, check out the debian-installer home page. The debian-cd team provides builds of installation images using debian-installer on the Debian CD/DVD page. For more information on where to get installation images, see Kohta 4.1, ”Official Debian GNU/Linux installation images”.

Some installation methods require other images than those for optical media. The debian-installer home page has links to other images. Kohta 4.2.1, ”Where to Find Installation Files” explains how to find images on Debian mirrors.

Seuraavat aliluvut kertovat yksityiskohtaisemmin mitä otosta olisi missäkin asennustavassa käytettävä.

A.2.1. Optical disc

The netinst CD image is a popular image which can be used to install trixie with the debian-installer. This installation method is intended to boot from the image and install additional packages over a network; hence the name netinst. The image has the software components needed to run the installer and the base packages to provide a minimal trixie system. If you'd rather, you can get a DVD image which will not need the network to install. You only need the first image of such set.

Download whichever type you prefer and burn it to an optical disc.

A.2.2. Verkkokäynnistys

debian-installer on mahdollista käynnistää kokonaan verkosta. Erilaiset verkkokäynnistystavat riippuvat arkkitehtuurista ja verkkokäynnistyksen asetuksista. Hakemiston netboot/ tiedostoja voidaan käyttää debian-installer:in verkkokäynnistykseen.

A.2.3. Käynnistys kiintolevyltä

It's possible to boot the installer using no removable media, but just an existing hard disk, which can have a different OS on it. Download hd-media/initrd.gz, hd-media/vmlinuz, and a Debian DVD image to the top-level directory of the hard disk. Make sure that the image has a filename ending in .iso. Now it's just a matter of booting linux with the initrd.
