+ <title>Official &debian; CD-ROM Sets</title>
+<para>
+
+By far the easiest way to install &debian; is from an Official
+Debian CD-ROM Set. You can buy a set from a vendor (see the
+<ulink url="&url-debian-cd-vendors;">CD vendors page</ulink>).
+You may also download the CD-ROM images from a Debian mirror and make
+your own set, if you have a fast network connection and a CD burner
+(see the <ulink url="&url-debian-cd;">Debian CD page</ulink> for
+detailed instructions). If you have a Debian CD set and CDs are
+bootable on your machine, you can skip right to
+<xref linkend="boot-installer"/>; much effort has been expended to ensure
+the files most people need are there on the CD. Although a full set of
+binary packages requires several CDs, it is unlikely you will need
+packages on the third CD and above. You may also consider using the
+DVD version, which saves a lot of space on your shelf and you avoid
+the CD shuffling marathon.
+
+</para><para>
+
+If your machine doesn't support CD booting, but you do have a CD set,
+you can use an alternative strategy such as
+
+<phrase condition="supports-floppy-boot">floppy disk,</phrase>
+
+<phrase arch="s390">tape, emulated tape,</phrase>
+
+<phrase condition="bootable-disk">hard disk,</phrase>
+
+<phrase condition="bootable-usb">usb stick,</phrase>
+
+<phrase condition="supports-tftp">net boot,</phrase>
+
+or manually loading the kernel from the CD to initially boot the
+system installer. The files you need for booting by another means are
+also on the CD; the Debian network archive and CD folder organization
+are identical. So when archive file paths are given below for
+particular files you need for booting, look for those files in the
+same directories and subdirectories on your CD.
+
+</para><para>
+
+Once the installer is booted, it will be able to obtain all the other
+files it needs from the CD.
+
+</para><para>
+
+If you don't have a CD set, then you will need to download the
+installer system files and place them on the
+
+<phrase arch="s390">installation tape</phrase>
+
+<phrase condition="supports-floppy-boot">floppy disk or</phrase>
+
+<phrase condition="bootable-disk">hard disk or</phrase>
+
+<phrase condition="bootable-usb">usb stick or</phrase>
+
+<phrase condition="supports-tftp">a connected computer</phrase>
+
+so they can be used to boot the installer.
