Here, I'll help you out. No need to rely on memory or hearsay. The first
Wheezy CD is at
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/wheezy_di_alpha1/i386/iso-cd/
What shall we say? 15/20 minutes to download? Another 5 minutes to put
on a USB stick? Boot.
Whereabouts are you given the choice to install from Squeeze medias? I
think we are all agreed it has to be before the partitioning stage, so
there isn't too much for you to do.
