+# Alpine Install: from a disc to any computer single only boot
+
+**Overall description:** Alpine Installation from a official disc/iso
+burned into DVD/CD to a new computer with or without
+[UEFI](Alpine_and_UEFI.md) and will be single only boot, 
+means that any thing in the computer and their disc will be erased to
+put Alpine Linux as main system
+
+This document will guide you to **install Alpine into a new empty or
+just fresh PC or Laptop hardware computer, use if you have a [BIOS or
+UEFI based hardware](Alpine_and_UEFI.md) and only wants Alpine**
+Linux into it.
+
+**HINT**: This method is in disuse today in favor of [usbstiks and imgs](alpine-install-from-usb-to-disk-pc-single-boot-only.md).
+
+## Terminology
+
+-   **[UEFI](Alpine_and_UEFI.md)**: it\'s a new system included
+    in every new hardware machine laptop or desktops, that will manage
+    the early boot process as a little operating system, see more in the
+    [Alpine and UEFI](Alpine_and_UEFI.md) page.
+-   **New machine**: will be your real machine fresh and ready to
+    install your new Alpine operating system, with a installed CD/DVD
+    Rom optical drive where to put the burned downloaded disc media
+    installation.
+-   **Optical drive**: will be your hardware drive input to put the
+    burned downloaded iso media with the operating system Alpine to
+    install as source media; this drive are commonly named [DVD/CD
+    Rom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD-ROM) unit.
+-   **Source media**: will be the just burned/ disc from the downloaded
+    iso file of Alpine operating system. Will be put into the optical
+    drive or named [DVD/CD Rom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD-ROM) to
+    property boot the source disc as media installation.
+-   **Target media**: will be the storage medium device into the new
+    computer target where the Alpine files for operating system will be
+    installed, its one partition from the
+    [HardDisk](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive) of the new
+    computer.
+
+## Requirements
+
+-   A blank disc (CD blank or DVD blank or BR blank) to just burn/record
+    the source media file downloaded
+-   In the new machine we need optical drive as input source media
+-   In the new machine we need at least 512Mb of RAM, but required 2Gb
+    of RAM for desktop/graphical applications
+-   In the new machine we need target media with at least 2G of hard
+    disk, but required 10G for desktops
+-   Will need to previously downloaded and burned the Source media ISO
+    file from <https://alpinelinux.org/downloads/>
+
+## Preparing the source medium to install
+
+Download the source medium to install and put into your home documents
+in a modern computer. There are more hardware medium sources to
+download, like the arm and i386, but ISO CD/DVD images are only to
+PC/Laptops that are i386 and amd64, so by downloading the x86 (32bit)
+flavor will be same for both cases, but UEFI need 64bit, so change to
+the x86_64 (amd64) if your computer is the most modern and lasted
+hardware.
+
+The source medium to install for [UEFI or modern hardware](Alpine_and_UEFI.md) 
+**are just 64-bit only**, the download URL will be as following format:
+`http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v<VERSION>/releases/<ARCH>/alpine-standard-<VERSION>.0-<ARCH>.iso`
+where `ARCH` and `VERSION` could be:
+
+-   `<ARCH>` could be one of:
+    -   **x86**: the most used i386 32-bit x86 based machines, if your
+        computer are too older use this only.
+    -   **x86_64**: The popular AMD64 compatible 64-bit x86 based
+        machines, i386 are not recommended for newer/lasted hardware.
+    -   **s390x**: For the Super powered IBM mainframes, especially IBM
+        Z and IBM LinuxONE servers.
+    -   **ppc64le**: For the PowerPC devices with pure little-endian
+        mode, mostly for POWER8 and POWER9
+-   `<VERSION>` could be one of:
+    -   **latest-stable** for a more up to date without taking care of
+        numbered
+    -   **3.10** the most recommended for machines between 2016 to 2018
+
+EXAMPLE if you plan **to using 3.10 version the available links to download will be:**
+
+-   for **x86_64** computers:
+    `http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.10/releases/x86_64/alpine-standard-3.10.0-x86_64.iso`
+-   for **s390x** servers:
+    `http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.10/releases/ppc64le/alpine-standard-3.10.1-ppc64le.iso`
+-   for **ppc64le** machines
+    `http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.10/releases/ppc64le/alpine-standard-3.10.1-ppc64le.iso`
+
+**Usin Graphical download way**: Just point the web browser to that url and the
+download of the iso file will start. A file with **.iso** extension
+type, with name like `"alpine-standard-3.10.0-x86_64.iso"` (if amd64) or
+like `alpine-standard-3.10.1-s390x.iso` (if s390x); will be downloaded
+commonly into the Download directory of your home documents filesystem.
+
+**Usin Command line method way**: in unix-like terminal execute:
+`wget -c -t8 --no-check-certificate http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.10/releases/x86_64/alpine-standard-3.10.0-x86_64.iso`,
+and where you run the command, in that place/dir will be downloaded the file.
+
+## Burning the source medium to install
+
+After downloading the source media file from [Alpine download page](https://alpinelinux.org/downloads/) 
+**put the blank disc into the input optical drive** named [DVD/CD Rom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD-ROM) 
+and **open your CD/DVD recording program, choose to "burn from iso file"** and wait the
+process will end.
+
+In detail if you downloaded with **Graphical download** (using a web
+browser), the source media file will be into the Download directory. If
+you downloaded with **Command line method** your source file probably
+will be in your root document home (or just `$HOME` of your Linux
+install or MAC install filesystem).
+
+In Linux, assuming the blank disc is in the optical drive, the command
+to record/burn the downloaded source media file is :
+
+`$ umount /dev/sr0;cdrecord -v -sao dev=/dev/sr0 alpine-standard-3.10.0-x86_64.iso`
+
+If your blank media is a DVD or BD disc the command will be then :
+
+`$ umount /dev/sr0;growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/sr0=alpine-standard-3.10.0-x86_64.iso`
+
+```{=mediawiki}
+{{Note|growisofs has a small bug with blank BD-R media. It issues an error message after the burning is complete. Programs like k3b then believe the whole burn run failed.}}
+```
+## Booting the Alpine ISO disc
+
+When the machine start, you must be sure to choose the optical drive
+(commonly named CD/DVD Rom drive), so the disc/iso will boot and after a
+while a command line shell will show you:
+
+```{=mediawiki}
+{{Tip|If your system is not configured to boot from a CD/DVD drive, it must be configured in the BIOS, '''ask/search to your vendor or technical support''', Toshiba computers need to hit F1 to choose boot medium, DELL must hit F11 to choose medium for example, and so and so}}
+```
+TODO put the same foto here
+
+TODO: restore the template about normal script steps for common pages
+(was inclusion here)
+
+## Finishing the installation
+
+After all of the scripts in the setup end, a "reboot" will be offered,
+just type "reboot" and press enter, remove the boot media and newly
+installed system will be booted.
+
+**You cannot see a graphical window system? take it easy** and get
+calmed down.. in Alpine all are made by the right way.. so **if user
+need a desktop.. user can install a desktop**
