Instructions for non-Debian systems

On your system NeuroDebian works best as a virtual appliance (virtual machine), a program that runs like any other application on your computer. Today’s computers can run such appliances without noticeable performance loss. To get started:

  1. Download this image file (~700 MB):
  1. Import this image into VirtualBox. If you do not have VirtualBox installed yet, visit the VirtualBox download page and get an installer for your system (installers for Windows, Linux, Mac and Solaris are available).
  2. Finish the configuration by following the instructions on setting up the virtual appliance. [Virtual machine setup video tutorial]

You are ready to go – enjoy NeuroDebian!
