"Under &debian-gnu;, it is much more likely that your OS can be repaired "

"installation; you can always upgrade in-place. And the programs are almost "

"requires newer supporting software, the &debian; packaging system ensures "
"that all the necessary software is automatically identified and installed. "
"The point is, much effort has been put into avoiding the need for re-"
"installation, so think of it as your very last option. The installer is "

"If you have no PS/2-style keyboard, but only a USB model, on some very old "
"PCs you may need to enable legacy keyboard emulation in your BIOS setup to "
"be able to use your keyboard in the bootloader menu, but this is not an "
"issue for modern systems. If your keyboard does not work in the bootloader "
"menu, consult your mainboard manual and look in the BIOS for <quote>Legacy "

"display driver, may not reliably produce a colormap under Linux when the "
"display is configured for more than 256 colors. If you are experiencing such "
"issues with your display after rebooting (you can sometimes see data on the "

"black after booting the installer instead of showing you the user interface, "
"try changing your display settings under MacOS to use 256 colors instead of "
