Install Debian Linux from Microsoft Windows

Next version of popular Linux distribution Debian will contain EXE application that is to be run in Windows for painless and harmless Debian installation.

After a long process of review and polishing, the win32 loader from goodbye-microsoft.com has finally made its way to official Debian CDs. Latest daily builds of Debian lenny (the development version) are including it, making starting Debian Installer as simple as just a few clicks (OGG). The win32-loader version, now based on GRUB 2, includes new features such as detection and pre-seeding of Windows settings, and is translated to 20 languages.
