What's in this directory?

These are files containing source code for the Debian live images.

There are multiple different files here, corresponding to the different desktop environments:

• Generic images with Office and a browser: GNOME KDE Cinnamon LXDE LXQt MATE XFCE
• Basic image with a text interface: standard
• Development version of Debian Blends: Debian Jr.

How do I use these files?

Once you have downloaded the ISO image you want, you will typically need to write it to media, either writeable DVD or a USB stick. Refer to the linked FAQ for instructions.

How can I verify my download is correct and exactly what has been created by Debian?

There are files here (SHA512SUMS, etc.) which contain checksums of the images. These checksum files are also signed - see the matching .sign files. Once you've downloaded an image, you can check:

• that its checksum matches that expected from the checksum file; and
• that the checksum file has not been tampered with.

For more information about how to do these steps, read the verification guide.

Non-free Firmware

This Debian image build only includes Free Software where possible. However, many systems include hardware which depends on non-free firmware to function properly so this build also includes those firmware files for those cases. See the Debian Wiki non-free firmware page for more information.

Other questions?

See the Debian CD FAQ for lots more information about Debian CDs and installation.

The images here were put together by the Debian Images team, using live-build and other software.
