14 DAY TRIAL // Just yesterday, September 18, 2016, we reported on the official availability of the Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 "Jessie" operating system, but no installation mediums of Live editions were announced then.
That changes today, September 19, 2016, as we've received a tip from one of our readers that both the installation-only and Live ISO editions have been released on the official channels and are now available for download (see the links below if you want to get them now).
Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 "Jessie" is only a collection of security and software updates, so existing users don't need to download any ISO image to keep their installations up to date, just make sure you have all the released updated packages installed from the stable repositories.
However, the Live editions are a different thing, as they allow newcomers to test the latest Debian GNU/Linux release with the GNOME, KDE, Xfce, LXDE, Cinnamon, and MATE desktop environments. ISO images are available for both 64-bit and 32-bit hardware architectures.
Download Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 "Jessie" Live ISOs
Without any further ado, you can download Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 GNOME, Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 KDE, Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 Xfce, Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 Cinnamon, Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 MATE, and Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 Standard Live editions right now via our website.
Again, please remember that, if you are using Debian GNU/Linux 8 "Jessie" and you have all the official updates installed, there's no need to download anything. However, if you want to deploy Debian on new PCs, you can get the Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 "Jessie" install-only ISO images, also via our website. Always keep your Debian OS up to date!
