What is it exactly that you are missing in the manual? [1]

Appendix A contains a 3 page summary of the installation that should be
essentially sufficient for most installations. Reading it would have
told you that the debian installer automatically adds the appropriate
entries for you 'other' operating system. Of course you are free to
configure your windows bootloader to work with linux, but for most cases
I think that the linux/debian method is superior.

How do I Install your Linux operating system.

2009-03-13 Thread caleb rodgers
Hey how do I Install your Linux operating system on my computer I can only 
access my database drive and I want to dual boot with Windows Vista. I have 
like 80 GB of Hard disk space. I installed the battlefield 2 game on my laptop. 
I have a AMD turion64 x2 processor and a built in broadcom wireless network. 
What can I do please help me I want to protest against MICROSOFT because the 
truth is I was hit by the downadup worm C version and I am trying to remove the 
administrator rights from system and trustedInstaller.exe person or something. 
Please help me in owning my computer again if you don't here from me for awhile 
then they literally own my computer. These guys who wrote this worm can take 
down air planes, own banks and take out government computers and maybe lauch 
missiles un suspectedly. Please Help me be able to solve this problem and 
prevent a cyber terrorist attack that might be launched from my computer or 
used by my computer.

Thank You guys You Devian can be a hero this time in the cyber world.

Thank you please email me back as soon as possible. thank you and I hope you 
are blessed if you do help me if not then I would have to ask Gentoo, Ubuntu 
and other Linux distrubutors. basically what I am saying is you have a mission 
to do right now.

also installed debian after installing vista, and then i can boot from

In my personal opinion, you will be more satisfied with Ubuntu, try
them. It is relatively safe, easy and (mainly for you) quick escape
from Microsoft claws. Just burn an ISO image, boot it and you off.

More than that, they have very friendly forum, not mailing list. It helps a lot.

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!

Cheers,
Johannes

This is not really a question for debian-www; you would have been better

Anyway. If you're looking for an operating system that you have to pay
only once (if at all) and are allowed to use on all your systems, then
almost every Linux distribution is a good option; the most well-known
exception being current RedHat Enterprise versions.

After all, the nature of the license of most Linux programs requires
that this is possible. Even when using RedHat, you are allowed to use at
least parts of the system on another machine.

re: downloading the GNU/LINUX Operating System.

Greetings!

I am interested in the above system. However, there 
are few hurdles I need to get over to download it. If someone could help me with 
the following questions that would be terrific...

To provide some context, I have no programming 
experience (have just started learning HTML) and really don't know much about 
the technical side of things. That being said I have a Toshiba Satellite 
(laptop) and am keen to to get a greater understanding of the above operating 
system. (I have done a enough surfing to realise that my Windows 98 system is 
simply not good enough in terms of security and efficiency, compared to UNIX 
based systems.)

I am also intending on studying to become a 
Webmaster over the next couple of years. This has been a prime motivator to get 
greater understanding about UNIX type operating systems.Enough context, 
now the questions:

1. Can I still run the Windows 98 with the 
GNU/LINUX operating system?

2. Are there any tutorials that you can recommend 
that relate to the above system?

3. Where and how do I download the 
GNU/LINUX operating system?

I look forward to your feedback.

  yes, you can dual boot - partition the system so that you have at
least one windows partition, one swap (generally twice as large as
amount of RAM) and at least one another (for linux itself)

 2. Are there any tutorials that you can recommend that relate to the
 above system?

  there are quite a few laptop how-tos on the net, just search google
for linux laptoptoshiba satellite... lot of them use other distros as
examples but you can load any other distro, you'll just have to read
which drivers and what settings they used. lot of toshiba satelites un

   Linux Torvald's created the Linux kernel.
 Richard Stallman founded the Free Software Foundation that is

 for creating most of the GNU utilities that most, if not all, Linux

 that is comprised predominantly of GNU utilities, in most cases.  Linus
 Torvald's did not create GNU nor did GNU, i.e. the Free Software
