- Continue the installation with selecting Download installer components and doing the "normal" installation.
Required software[ | ]
After the installation of Debian you can install the required software:
- wine-unstable and wine64-unstable (as long as there is no "native" Linux build) (tested: 1.7.17)
- xvfb (probably also only as long as there is no native build)
- mono-runtime
- screen
- rsync (for backups)
- sendemail, sendxmpp (for memory limit notifications, both optional)
After installation of all software you should create an alias for wine or you need to use wine-unstable instead of wine.
If you run wine, it will tell you that you need support for multiarch, just execute the following command:
dpkg --add-architecture i386
