Re: jigdo-lite for windows (from debian-cd list)

["Thomas Schmitt" <scdbackup@gmx.net>]

Hi,

we should move this to debian-user mailing list, as it is more
about installing from the MS-Windows world and not about the
installation ISOs themselves.

Please send your further replies to
  debian-user@lists.debian.org

The start of the thread is (in french) at
  https://lists.debian.org/debian-cd/2016/02/msg00010.html
and switches to english at
  https://lists.debian.org/debian-cd/2016/02/msg00012.html
I demonstrated a jigdo-lite download on Debian in
  https://lists.debian.org/debian-cd/2016/02/msg00014.html

I assume you will get proposed some other mirror address.

This does not influence the content of the DVD images you get.
"mirror" means "identical copy" here. They exist just to distribute
the workload over many different network parts.

The installation procedure will ask you for your preferred language.
(I choose US english because it matches best my keyboard and i do
 not have to translate german texts back to enlish in order to grasp
 their meaning.)


Maybe the people here on debian-user can give you more specific
advise if you tell us what kind of computer you want to equip with
Debian. Shall it still offer the opportunity to start MS-Windows ?
Do you need to perform special tasks or is it just to explore it ?


Have a nice day :)
