+<!-- This section explains how to install &debian; from an existing
+Unix or Linux system, without using the menu-driven installer as
+explained in the rest of the manual. This <quote>cross-install</quote>
+HOWTO has been requested by users switching to &debian; from
+Red Hat, Mandrake, and SUSE. In this section some familiarity with
+entering *nix commands and navigating the file system is assumed. In
+this section, <prompt>$</prompt> symbolizes a command to be entered in
+the user's current system, while <prompt>#</prompt> refers to a
+command entered in the Debian chroot. -->
+
+Questa sezione spiega come installare &debian; a partire da un sistema
+Unix o Linux esistente, senza utilizzare l'installatore a menu
+come illustrato nel resto del manuale. Questo HOWTO sul
+<quote>cross-install</quote> è stato richiesto da utenti di altre distribuzioni,
+Red Hat, Mandrake e SUSE, che vogliono passare a &debian;. Viene data per
+acquisita una minima familiarità con i comandi *nix e con la navigazione
+del file system. In questa sezione, <prompt>$</prompt> indica un comando
+da inserire nel sistema attualmente in uso all'utente, mentre
+<prompt>#</prompt> si riferisce a un comando da inserire nell'ambiente
+chroot di Debian.

+<!-- Once you've got the new Debian system configured to your preference,

+otherwise doesn't play friendly with various boot or installation
+media. -->
+
+Una volta che il nuovo sistema Debian sia stato configurato a
+piacimento, si può procedere alla migrazione dei dati esistenti e
+proseguire normalmente. Si tratta perciò di un'installazione che non
+blocca nemmeno momentaneamente l'uso del sistema. Si tratta inoltre di
+un modo ingegnoso per lavorare con hardware che potrebbe creare problemi
+con i normali dispositivi di avvio o installazione.

+#### Startup.
+
+# To use a preseed file, you'll first need to boot the installer,
+# and tell it what preseed file to use. This is done by passing the
+# kernel a boot parameter, either manually at boot or by editing the
+# syslinux.cfg (or similar) file and adding the parameter to the end
+# of the append line(s) for the kernel.
+#
+# If you're netbooting, use this:
+#   preseed/url=http://host/path/to/preseed
+# If you're remastering a CD, you could use this:
+#   preseed/file=/cdrom/preseed
+# If you're installing from USB media, use this, and put the preseed file
+# in the toplevel directory of the USB stick.
+#   preseed/file=/hd-media/preseed
+#
+# If you feel comfortable modifying the installer's initrd image,
+# you can also place a preseed file in the root directory of the initrd's
+# filesystem, named "preseed.cfg" -- the installer will always use this
+# file if it is present. Otherwise, be sure to copy this file to the location
+# you specify.
+#
+# To make sure the installer gets the right preseed file, you can specify
+# a checksum for the file. Currently this needs to be a md5sum, and if
+# specified it must match the file or the installer will refuse to use the
+# file.
+#   preseed/url/checksum=5da499872becccfeda2c4872f9171c3d
+#   preseed/file/checksum=5da499872becccfeda2c4872f9171c3d
+#
+# Some parts of the installation process cannot be automated using
+# some forms of preseeding, because the questions are asked before
+# the preseed file is loaded. For example, if the preseed file is
+# downloaded over the network, the network setup must be done first.
+# One reason to use initrd preseeding is that it allows preseeding
+# of even these early steps of the installation process.
+#
+# If a preseed file cannot be used to preseed some steps, the install can
+# still be fully automated, since you can pass preseed values to the kernel
+# on the command line. Just pass path/to/var=value for any of the preseed
+# variables listed below.
+#
+# While you're at it, you may want to throw a debconf/priority=critical in
+# there, to avoid most questions even if the preseeding below misses some.
+# And you might set the timeout to 1 in syslinux.cfg to avoid needing to hit
+# enter to boot the installer.
+#
+# Note that the 2.4 kernel accepts a maximum of 8 command line options and
+# 8 environment options (including any options added by default for the
+# installer). If these numbers are exceeded, 2.4 kernels will drop any
+# excess options and 2.6 kernels will panic. With kernel 2.6.9 or newer,
+# you can use 32 command line options and 32 environment options.
+#
+# Some of the default options, like 'vga=normal' may be safely removed
+# for most installations, which may allow you to add more options for
+# preseeding.
+
+# To select your language and country, use this setting, but remember
+# that this will only work for initrd based preseeding, for other forms of
+# preseeding you must convert it into a kernel parameter,
+# such as debian-installer/locale=en_US
+d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US
+
+# To select your keyboard, use this setting. Again it will need to be
+# passed as a kernel parameter for most preseed setups.
+d-i console-keymaps-at/keymap select us
+
+#### Network configuration.
+
+# Of course, this won't work if you're loading your preseed file from the
+# network! But it's great if you're booting from CD or USB stick. You can
+# also pass network config parameters in on the kernel params if you are
+# loading preseed files from the network.
+
+# netcfg will choose an interface that has link if possible. This makes it
+# skip displaying a list if there is more than one interface.
+d-i netcfg/choose_interface select auto
+
+# If you have a slow dhcp server and the installer times out waiting for
+# it, this might be useful.
+#d-i netcfg/dhcp_timeout string 60
+
+# If you prefer to configure the network manually, here's how:
+#d-i netcfg/disable_dhcp boolean true
+#d-i netcfg/get_nameservers string 192.168.1.1
+#d-i netcfg/get_ipaddress string 192.168.1.42
+#d-i netcfg/get_netmask string 255.255.255.0
+#d-i netcfg/get_gateway string 192.168.1.1
+#d-i netcfg/confirm_static boolean true
+
+# Note that any hostname and domain names assigned from dhcp take
+# precedence over values set here. However, setting the values still
+# prevents the questions from being shown even if values come from dhcp.
+d-i netcfg/get_hostname string unassigned-hostname
+d-i netcfg/get_domain string unassigned-domain
+
+# Disable that annoying WEP key dialog.
+d-i netcfg/wireless_wep string
+# The wacky dhcp hostname that some ISPs use as a password of sorts.
+#d-i netcfg/dhcp_hostname string radish
+
+#### Mirror settings.
+
+d-i mirror/country string enter information manually
+d-i mirror/http/hostname string http.us.debian.org
+d-i mirror/http/directory string /debian
+d-i mirror/http/proxy string
+
+# What suite of Debian to install.
+#d-i mirror/suite string testing
+# What suite of Debian to use for loading installer components.
+# (Defaults to same as mirror/suite.)
+#d-i mirror/udeb/suite string testing
+
+#### Partitioning.
+
+# If the system has free space you can choose to only partition that space.
+#d-i partman-auto/init_automatically_partition \
+#      select Use the largest continuous free space
+
+# Alternatively, you can specify a disk to partition. The device name can
+# be given in either devfs or traditional non-devfs format.
+# For example, to use the first disk devfs knows of:
+d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/discs/disc0/disc
+
+# You can choose from any of the predefined partitioning recipes:
+d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe \
+       select All files in one partition (recommended for new users)
+#d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe select Desktop machine
+#d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe select Multi-user workstation
+
+# Or provide a recipe of your own...
+# The recipe format is documented in the file devel/partman-auto-recipe.txt.
+# If you have a way to get a recipe file into the d-i environment, you can
+# just point at it.
+#d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe_file string /hd-media/recipe
+
+# If not, you can put an entire recipe the preseed file in one (logical)
+# line. This example creates a small /boot partition, suitable swap, and
+# uses the rest of the space for the root partition:
+#d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string                         \
+#      boot-root ::                                            \

+#                      use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 }    \
+#                      mountpoint{ /boot }                     \
+#              .                                               \

+
+# This makes partman automatically partition without confirmation.
+d-i partman/confirm_write_new_label boolean true
+d-i partman/choose_partition \
+       select Finish partitioning and write changes to disk
+d-i partman/confirm boolean true
+
+#### Boot loader installation.
+
+# Grub is the default boot loader (for x86). If you want lilo installed
+# instead, uncomment this:
+#d-i grub-installer/skip boolean true
+
+# This is fairly safe to set, it makes grub install automatically to the MBR
+# if no other operating system is detected on the machine.
+d-i grub-installer/only_debian boolean true
+
+# This one makes grub-installer install to the MBR if if finds some other OS
+# too, which is less safe as it might not be able to boot that other OS.
+d-i grub-installer/with_other_os boolean true
+
+# Alternatively, if you want to install to a location other than the mbr,
+# uncomment and edit these lines:
+#d-i grub-installer/bootdev  string (hd0,0)
+#d-i grub-installer/only_debian boolean false
+#d-i grub-installer/with_other_os boolean false
+
+#### Finishing up the first stage install.
+
+# Avoid that last message about the install being complete.
+d-i prebaseconfig/reboot_in_progress note
+
+# This will prevent the installer from ejecting the CD during the reboot,
+# which is useful in some situations.
+#d-i cdrom-detect/eject boolean false
+
+#### Shell commands.
+
+# d-i preseeding is inherently not secure. Nothing in the installer checks
+# for attempts at buffer overflows or other exploits of the values of a
+# preseed file like this one. Only use preseed files from trusted
+# locations! To drive that home, and because it's generally useful, here's
+# a way to run any shell command you'd like inside the installer,
+# automatically.
+
+# This first command is run as early as possible, just after
+# preseeding is read.
+#d-i preseed/early_command string anna-install some-udeb
+
+# This command is run just before the install finishes, but when there is
+# still a usable /target directory.
+#d-i preseed/late_command string echo foo > /target/etc/bar
+
+# This command is run just as base-config is starting up.
+#base-config base-config/early_command string echo hi mom
+
+# This command is run after base-config is done, just before the login:
+# prompt. This is a good way to install a set of packages you want, or to
+# tweak the configuration of the system.
+#base-config base-config/late_command \
+#      string apt-get install zsh; chsh -s /bin/zsh
+
+###### Preseeding the 2nd stage of the installation.
+
+#### Preseeding base-config.
+
+# Avoid the introductory message.
+base-config base-config/intro note
+
+# Avoid the final message.
+base-config base-config/login note
+
+# If you installed a display manager, but don't want to start it immediately
+# after base-config finishes.
+#base-config base-config/start-display-manager boolean false
+
+# Some versions of the installer can report back on what you've installed.
+# The default is not to report back, but sending reports helps the project
+# determine what software is most popular and include it on CDs.
+#popularity-contest popularity-contest/participate boolean false
+
+#### Clock and time zone setup.
+
+# Controls whether or not the hardware clock is set to UTC.
+d-i clock-setup/utc boolean true
+
+# You may set this to any valid setting for $TZ; see the contents of
+# /usr/share/zoneinfo/ for options.
+d-i time/zone string US/Eastern
+
+#### Account setup.
+
+# To preseed the root password, you have to put it in the clear in this
+# file. That is not a very good idea, use caution!
+#passwd passwd/root-password password r00tme
+#passwd passwd/root-password-again password r00tme
+
+# If you want to skip creation of a normal user account.
+#passwd passwd/make-user boolean false
+
+# Alternatively, you can preseed the user's name and login.
+#passwd passwd/user-fullname string Debian User
+#passwd passwd/username string debian
+# And their password, but use caution!
+#passwd passwd/user-password password insecure
+#passwd passwd/user-password-again password insecure
+
+#### Apt setup.
+
+# This question controls what source the second stage installation uses
+# for packages. Choices are cdrom, http, ftp, filesystem, edit sources list
+# by hand
+base-config apt-setup/uri_type select http
+
+# If you choose ftp or http, you'll be asked for a country and a mirror.
+base-config apt-setup/country select enter information manually
+base-config apt-setup/hostname string http.us.debian.org
+base-config apt-setup/directory string /debian
+# Stop after choosing one mirror.

+#base-config apt-setup/non-free boolean true
+#base-config apt-setup/contrib boolean true

+# Do enable security updates.
+base-config apt-setup/security-updates boolean true
+
+#### Package selection.
+
+# You can choose to install any combination of tasks that are available.
+# Available tasks as of this writing include: Desktop environment,
+# Web server, Print server, DNS server, File server, Mail server,
+# SQL database, Laptop, Standard system, manual package selection. The
+# last of those will run aptitude. You can also choose to install no
+# tasks, and force the installation of a set of packages in some other
+# way. We recommend always including the Standard system task.
+tasksel tasksel/first multiselect Desktop environment, Standard system
+#tasksel tasksel/first multiselect Web server, Standard system
+
+#### Mailer configuration.
+
+# During a normal install, exim asks only a few questions. Here's how to
+# avoid even those. More complicated preseeding is possible.
+exim4-config exim4/dc_eximconfig_configtype \
+       select no configuration at this time
+exim4-config exim4/no_config boolean true
+exim4-config exim4/no_config boolean true

+# It's a good idea to set this to whatever user account you choose to
+# create. Leaving the value blank results in postmaster mail going to
+# /var/mail/mail.
+exim4-config exim4/dc_postmaster string
+
+#### X Configuration.
+
+# Preseeding Debian's X config is possible, but you probably need to know
+# some details about the video hardware of the machine, since Debian's X
+# configurator does not do fully automatic configuration of everything.
+
+# X can detect the right driver for some cards, but if you're preseeding,
+# you override whatever it chooses. Still, vesa will work most places.
+#xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86/config/device/driver select vesa
+
+# A caveat with mouse autodetection is that if it fails, X will retry it
+# over and over. So if it's preseeded to be done, there is a possibility of
+# an infinite loop if the mouse is not autodetected.
+#xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86/autodetect_mouse boolean true
+
+# Monitor autodetection is recommended.
+xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86/autodetect_monitor boolean true
+# Uncomment if you have an LCD display.

+# Depending on what software you choose to install, or if things go wrong
+# during the installation process, it's possible that other questions may
+# be asked. You can preseed those too, of course. To get a list of every

+#   debconf-get-selections --installer > file
+#   debconf-get-selections >> file
+
+# If you like, you can include other preseed files into this one.
+# Any settings in those files will override pre-existing settings from this
+# file. More that one file can be listed, separated by spaces; all will be

+#### Boot loader installation.
+
+# Grub is the default boot loader (for x86). If you want lilo installed
+# instead, uncomment this:
+#d-i grub-installer/skip boolean true
+
+# This is fairly safe to set, it makes grub install automatically to the MBR
+# if no other operating system is detected on the machine.
+d-i grub-installer/only_debian boolean true
+
+# This one makes grub-installer install to the MBR if if finds some other OS
+# too, which is less safe as it might not be able to boot that other OS.
+d-i grub-installer/with_other_os boolean true
+
+# Alternatively, if you want to install to a location other than the mbr,
+# uncomment and edit these lines:
+#d-i grub-installer/bootdev  string (hd0,0)
+#d-i grub-installer/only_debian boolean false
+#d-i grub-installer/with_other_os boolean false
+
+#### Finishing up the first stage install.
+
+# Avoid that last message about the install being complete.
+d-i prebaseconfig/reboot_in_progress note
+
+#### Shell commands.
+
+# d-i preseeding is inherently not secure. Nothing in the installer checks
+# for attempts at buffer overflows or other exploits of the values of a
+# preseed file like this one. Only use preseed files from trusted
+# locations! To drive that home, and because it's generally useful, here's
+# a way to run any shell command you'd like inside the installer,
+# automatically.
+
+# This first command is run as early as possible, just after
+# preseeding is read.
+#d-i preseed/early_command string anna-install some-udeb
+
+# This command is run just before the install finishes, but when there is
+# still a usable /target directory.
+#d-i preseed/late_command string echo foo > /target/etc/bar
+
+# This command is run just as base-config is starting up.
+#base-config base-config/early_command string echo hi mom
+
+# This command is run after base-config is done, just before the login:
+# prompt. This is a good way to install a set of packages you want, or to
+# tweak the configuration of the system.
+#base-config base-config/late_command string \
+#    apt-get install zsh; chsh -s /bin/zsh
+
+###### Preseeding the 2nd stage of the installation.
+
+#### Preseeding base-config.
+
+# Avoid the introductory message.
+base-config base-config/intro note
+
+# Avoid the final message.
+base-config base-config/login note
+
+# If you installed a display manager, but don't want to start it immediately
+# after base-config finishes.
+#base-config base-config/start-display-manager boolean false

+# The default is not to report back, but sending reports helps the project
+# determine what software is most popular and include it on CDs.
+#popularity-contest popularity-contest/participate boolean false
+
+#### Clock and time zone setup.
+
+# Controls whether or not the hardware clock is set to UTC.
+#base-config tzconfig/gmt boolean true
+# If you told the installer that you're in the United States, then you
+# can set the time zone using this variable.

+# If you told it you're in Brazil. (Choices are: East, West, Acre,
+# DeNoronha, other)
+#base-config tzconfig/choose_country_zone/BR select East
+# Many countries have only one time zone. If you told the installer you're
+# in one of those countries, you can choose its standard time zone via this
+# question.
+#base-config tzconfig/choose_country_zone_single boolean true
+# This question is asked as a fallback for countries other than those
+# listed above, which have more than one time zone. You can preseed one of
+# the time zones, or "other".
+#base-config tzconfig/choose_country_zone_multiple select
+
+#### Account setup.
+
+# To preseed the root password, you have to put it in the clear in this
+# file. That is not a very good idea, use caution!
+#passwd passwd/root-password password r00tme
+#passwd passwd/root-password-again password r00tme
+
+# If you want to skip creation of a normal user account.
+#passwd passwd/make-user boolean false

+#passwd passwd/username string debian
+# And their password, but use caution!
+#passwd passwd/user-password password insecure
+#passwd passwd/user-password-again password insecure
+
+#### Apt setup.
+
+# This question controls what source the second stage installation uses
+# for packages. Choices are cdrom, http, ftp, filesystem, edit sources list
+# by hand
+base-config apt-setup/uri_type select http
+
+# If you choose ftp or http, you'll be asked for a country and a mirror.
+base-config apt-setup/country select enter information manually
+base-config apt-setup/hostname string http.us.debian.org
+base-config apt-setup/directory string /debian
+# Stop after choosing one mirror.

+#base-config apt-setup/non-free boolean true
+#base-config apt-setup/contrib boolean true
+
+# Do enable security updates.
+base-config apt-setup/security-updates boolean true
+
+#### Package selection.
+
+# You can choose to install any combination of tasks that are available.
+# Available tasks as of this writing include: Desktop environment,
+# Web server, Print server, DNS server, File server, Mail server,
+# SQL database, Laptop, Standard system, manual package selection. The
+# last of those will run aptitude. You can also choose to install no
+# tasks, and force the installation of a set of packages in some other
+# way. We recommend always including the Standard system task.
+tasksel tasksel/first multiselect Desktop environment, Standard system
+#tasksel tasksel/first multiselect Web server, Standard system
+
+#### Mailer configuration.
+
+# During a normal install, exim asks only a few questions. Here's how to
+# avoid even those. More complicated preseeding is possible.
+exim4-config exim4/dc_eximconfig_configtype \
+    select no configuration at this time
+exim4-config exim4/no_config boolean true
+exim4-config exim4/no_config boolean true
+
+# It's a good idea to set this to whatever user account you choose to
+# create. Leaving the value blank results in postmaster mail going to
+# /var/mail/mail.
+exim4-config exim4/dc_postmaster string
+
+#### X Configuration.
+
+# Preseeding Debian's X config is possible, but you probably need to know
+# some details about the video hardware of the machine, since Debian's X
+# configurator does not do fully automatic configuration of everything.
+
+# X can detect the right driver for some cards, but if you're preseeding,
+# you override whatever it chooses. Still, vesa will work most places.
+#xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86/config/device/driver select vesa
+
+# A caveat with mouse autodetection is that if it fails, X will retry it
+# over and over. So if it's preseeded to be done, there is a possibility of
+# an infinite loop if the mouse is not autodetected.
+#xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86/autodetect_mouse boolean true
+
+# Monitor autodetection is recommended.
+xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86/autodetect_monitor boolean true
+# Uncomment if you have an LCD display.
+#xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/lcd boolean true
+# X has three configuration paths for the monitor. Here's how to preseed
+# the "medium" path, which is always available. The "simple" path may not
+# be available, and the "advanced" path asks too many questions.
+xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/selection-method \
+    select medium
+xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/mode-list \
+    select 1024x768 @ 60 Hz
+
+#### Everything else.
+
+# Depending on what software you choose to install, or if things go wrong
+# during the installation process, it's possible that other questions may
+# be asked. You can preseed those too, of course. To get a list of every
+# possible question that could be asked during an install, do an
+# installation, and then run these commands:
+#   debconf-get-selections --installer > file
+#   debconf-get-selections >> file
+
+# If you like, you can include other preseed files into this one.
+# Any settings in those files will override pre-existing settings from this
+# file. More that one file can be listed, separated by spaces; all will be
+# loaded. The included files can have preseed/include directives of their
+# own as well. Note that if the filenames are relative, they are taken from
+# the same directory as the preseed file that includes them.
+#d-i preseed/include string x.cfg
+
+# More flexibly, this runs a shell command and if it outputs the names of
+# preseed files, includes those files. For example, to switch configs based
+# on a particular usb storage device (in this case, a built-in card reader):
+#d-i preseed/include_command string \
+#    if $(grep -q "GUID: 0aec3050aec305000001a003" /proc/scsi/usb-storage-*/*); \
+#    then echo kraken.cfg; else echo otherusb.cfg; fi
+
+# To check the format of your preseed file before performing an install,
+# you can use debconf-set-selections:
+#   debconf-set-selections -c preseed.cfg

+  <title>Preamble</title>
+<para>
+
+The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom
+to share and change it. By contrast, the gnu General Public License
+is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
+software &mdash; to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
+General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
+Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit
+to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered
+by the gnu Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it
+to your programs, too.
+
+</para><para>
+
+When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
+for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can
+get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces
+of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these
+things.
+
+</para><para>
+
+To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
+anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the
+rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
+you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
+
+</para><para>
+
+For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
+you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
+source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
+rights.
+
+</para><para>
+
+We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software,
+and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to
+copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
+that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
+software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on,
+we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the
+original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect
+on the original authors' reputations.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
+patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
+program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making
+the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that
+any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed
+at all.
+
+</para><para>
+
+The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.

+TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
+
+</para>
+
+<itemizedlist><listitem><para>
+
+This License applies to any program or other work which contains a
+notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
+under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
+refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
+means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
+that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
+either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
+language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
+the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
+
+</para><para>
+
+Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
+running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the
+Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on
+the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
+Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
+source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
+conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
+copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
+notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
+warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this
+License along with the Program.
+
+</para><para>
+
+You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
+you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
+fee.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+</para><para>
+
+a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
+stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+
+</para><para>
+
+b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
+whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part
+thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties
+under the terms of this License.
+
+</para><para>
+
+c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when
+run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use
+in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement
+including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is
+no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that
+users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and
+telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if
+the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an
+announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print
+an announcement.)
+
+</para><para>
+
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
+sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
+on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
+it.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
+collective works based on the Program.
+
+</para><para>
+
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the
+Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a
+volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other
+work under the scope of this License.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
+under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
+Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the
+following:
+
+</para><para>
+
+a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
+source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1
+and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange;
+or,
+
+</para><para>
+
+b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years,
+to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of
+physically performing source distribution, a complete
+machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
+distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
+customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+</para><para>
+
+c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to
+distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed
+only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the
+program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in
+accord with Subsection b above.)
+
+</para><para>
+
+The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
+code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
+associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
+control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
+special exception, the source code distributed need not include
+anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
+form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
+operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
+itself accompanies the executable.
+
+</para><para>
+
+If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
+access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
+access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
+distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
+except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
+void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this
+License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from
+you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so
+long as such parties remain in full compliance.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
+distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
+modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+the Program or works based on it.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject
+to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted
+herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third
+parties to this License.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do
+not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under
+this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
+consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example,
+if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of
+the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly
+through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this
+License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the
+Program.
+
+</para><para>
+
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
+any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended
+to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
+circumstances.
+
+</para><para>
+
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
+integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
+implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is
+willing to distribute software through any other system and a
+licensee cannot impose that choice.

+be a consequence of the rest of this License.

+
+If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
+original copyright holder who places the Program under this License

+countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates

+Each version is

+</para><para>
+
+To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest

+<para>
+
+Le  licenze  della maggior  parte  dei  programmi  hanno lo  scopo  di
+togliere  all'utente  la  libertà   di  condividere  e  modificare  il
+programma stesso. Viceversa, la Licenza Pubblica Generica GNU è intesa
+a garantire la libertà di condividere e modificare il software libero,
+al fine  di assicurare che i  programmi siano liberi per  tutti i loro
+utenti.   Questa Licenza  si  applica alla  maggioranza dei  programmi
+della Free Software Foundation e  ad ogni altro programma i cui autori
+hanno deciso  di usare questa  Licenza.  Alcuni altri  programmi della
+Free Software  Foundation sono  invece coperti dalla  Licenza Pubblica
+Generica  Minore.  Chiunque  può  usare questa  Licenza  per i  propri
+programmi.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Quando si  parla di software  libero (free software), ci  si riferisce
+alla libertà,  non al prezzo.   Le nostre Licenze  (la GPL e  la LGPL)
+sono  progettate per  assicurarsi  che ciascuno  abbia  la libertà  di
+distribuire copie del  software libero (e farsi pagare  per questo, se
+vuole), che ciascuno riceva il codice sorgente o che lo possa ottenere
+se lo  desidera, che ciascuno  possa modificare il programma  o usarne
+delle parti in nuovi programmi  liberi e che ciascuno sappia di potere
+fare queste cose.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Per proteggere i diritti  dell'utente, abbiamo bisogno di creare delle
+restrizioni  che vietino  a chiunque  di  negare questi  diritti o  di
+chiedere  di rinunciarvi.   Queste restrizioni  si traducono  in certe
+responsabilità per  chi distribuisce copie  del software e per  chi lo
+modifica.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Per esempio,  chi distribuisce copie  di un programma coperto  da GPL,
+sia gratis sia in cambio di un compenso, deve concedere ai destinatari
+tutti  i  diritti che  ha  ricevuto.   Deve  anche assicurarsi  che  i
+destinatari ricevano  o possano ottenere  il codice sorgente.   E deve
+mostrar loro queste condizioni di  licenza, in modo che essi conoscano
+i propri diritti.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Proteggiamo  i diritti  dell'utente in  due modi:  (1)  proteggendo il
+software  con un  copyright,  e (2)  offrendo  una licenza  che dia il
+permesso legale di copiare, distribuire e modificare il Programma.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Inoltre, per proteggere ogni autore e noi stessi, vogliamo assicurarci
+che ognuno capisca che non ci sono garanzie per i programmi coperti da
+GPL.    Se  il  programma   viene  modificato   da  qualcun   altro  e
+ridistribuito, vogliamo che gli  acquirenti sappiano che ciò che hanno
+non è l'originale,  in modo che ogni problema  introdotto da altri non
+si rifletta sulla reputazione degli autori originari.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Infine, ogni programma libero  è costantemente minacciato dai brevetti
+sui programmi.  Vogliamo evitare il pericolo che chi ridistribuisce un
+programma libero ottenga la proprietà di brevetti, rendendo in pratica
+il programma  cosa di sua proprietà.  Per  prevenire questa evenienza,
+abbiamo chiarito  che ogni brevetto  debba essere concesso  in licenza
+d'uso a chiunque, o non avere alcuna restrizione di licenza d'uso.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Seguono  i  termini   e  le  condizioni  precisi  per   la  copia,  la
+distribuzione e la modifica.

+ogni terza parte, secondo i termini di questa Licenza.

+
+c)   Se   normalmente  il   programma  modificato   legge  comandi

+messaggio  contenente  una  appropriata  nota di  copyright  e  di
+assenza di garanzia (oppure che specifichi il tipo di garanzia che
+si offre).  Il messaggio deve inoltre specificare che chiunque può
+ridistribuire il  programma alle  condizioni qui descritte  e deve
+indicare come  reperire questa Licenza.   Se però il  programma di
+partenza è  interattivo ma normalmente non  stampa tale messaggio,
+non occorre che un'opera basata sul Programma lo stampi.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Questi requisiti si applicano  all'opera modificata nel suo complesso.
+Se sussistono parti identificabili dell'opera modificata che non siano
+derivate   dal  Programma   e  che   possono   essere  ragionevolmente
+considerate  lavori  indipendenti,  allora  questa Licenza  e  i  suoi
+termini  non  si  applicano  a  queste  parti  quando  queste  vengono
+distribuite  separatamente. Se però  queste parti  vengono distribuite
+all'interno di  un prodotto  che è un'opera  basata sul  Programma, la
+distribuzione  di quest'opera  nella sua  interezza deve  avvenire nei
+termini di questa Licenza, le  cui norme nei confronti di altri utenti

+<para>
+
+<!--
+This section explains how to install &debian; on a computer without
+Ethernet card, but with just a remote gateway computer attached via
+a Null-Modem cable (also called Null-Printer cable). The gateway
+computer should be connected to a network that has a Debian mirror
+on it (e.g. to the Internet).

+
+Questa sezione spiega come installare &debian; su un computer senza una
+scheda di rete usando solo un computer remoto che fa da gateway tramite
+un cavo Null-Modem (chiamato anche Null-Printer). Il computer che fa
+gateway deve essere connesso a una rete sui cui è presente un mirror
+Debian (per esempio Internet).

+<!--
+In the example in this appendix we will set up a PLIP connection using
+a gateway connected to the Internet over a dial-up connection (ppp0).
+We will use IP addresses 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.2 for the PLIP
+interfaces on the target system and the source system respectively
+(these addresses should be unused within your network address space).
+-->
+
+Nell'esempio presente in questa appendice è configurata una connessione
+PLIP con un gateway connesso a Internet tramite una connessione dial-up
+(ppp0). Sono usati gli indirizzi IP 192.168.0.1 e 192.168.0.2 per
+l'interfaccia PLIP rispettivamente sul sistema target e sul sistema
+sorgente (questi indirizzi devono essere liberi all'interno dello spazio
+indirizzi della propria rete).

+The PLIP connection set up during the installation will also be available
