<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">a) I downloaded the netinst files from this link -</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> </SPAN><A HREF="http://www.debian.org/distrib/"><SPAN LANG="en-us"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Calibri">http://www.debian.org/distrib/</FONT></U></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"></SPAN></A><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">, I used the 32bit one for an N270 install that I put IRLP on, and the 64bit one for an N2800 install that I did the Allstar install on.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">b) I then used the bootable usb creator from</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">pendrivelinux.com - get it here for windows</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> </SPAN><A HREF="http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/"><SPAN LANG="en-us"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Calibri">http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/</FONT></U></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"></SPAN></A><SPAN LANG="en-us"></SPAN></P>

<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">d) setup the right boot order in the bios on your mother board, and poof, you should be able to install debian from that process. You'll need the box connected to the network so that it can go get all the right modules.</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">I pretty much created a vanilla install, only thin</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">g</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri"> I did install was ssh and sql, and the last selection which I can't remember right now but was core related. When it was ready to reboot, I had a Debian install done.</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">Ok, phase 2 will be around what you need to do before you install anything further… </FONT></SPAN></P>
