We are delighted that you have decided to try Debian, and are
|
| 9 |
sure that you will find that Debian's GNU/Linux distribution is
|
| 10 |
unique. &debian; brings together high-quality free software
|
| 11 |
from around the world, integrating it into a coherent whole. We
|
| 12 |
believe that you will find that the result is truly more than the sum
|
| 13 |
of the parts.

We understand that many of you want to install Debian without reading this
|
| 18 |
manual, and the Debian installer is designed to make this possible. If you
|
| 19 |
don't have time to read the whole Installation Guide right now, we recommend
|
| 20 |
that you read the Installation Howto, which will walk you through the basic
|
| 21 |
installation process, and links to the manual for more advanced topics or
|
| 22 |
for when things go wrong. The Installation Howto can be found in
|
| 23 |
<xref linkend="installation-howto"/>.

With that said, we hope that you have the time to read most of this manual,
|
| 28 |
and doing so will lead to a more informed and likely more successful
|
| 29 |
installation experience.
