Choosing and Downloading a Disk Image
Naturally the first thing you’ll need to do in order to get up and running is to download the image.
We distribute these images as .iso files, which are commonly referred to as “disk images.”
You have a few choices to download an .iso one is SourceForge and the mirror would be at OSSPlanet
The most significant difference between Debian and Devuan is the init system:
- Debian uses systemd as its default init system
- Devuan was created specifically to avoid systemd, offering alternatives like SysV init, OpenRC, and runit
