Getting Deepin Linux ISO

The latest version of Deepin Linux currently doesn’t support 32-bit systems. So, unless you’re system is too old, Deepin Linux should run fine.

Let’s grab the latest version of Deepin Linux installation ISO.

Besides the official download link, Deepin also hosts the ISO file on other places like SourceForge, Google Drive and other mirrors. In cases, those may be better solution for faster downloading.

Making a bootable media

For installing any operating system these days, the best method to follow is to use a USB flash drive. This way, you can ensure faster performance while using the same drive again and again. Make a bootable USB flash drive.

Installing Deepin Linux

Boot into the USB flash drive or other bootable media you just created. At first, you’ll get the boot menu of Deepin.

Here, there are several available options. This step is optional but to make sure that everything is alright, you should choose the “Check iso md5sum” option.

Now, select the “Install Deepin” option.

Select the language of your choice. I’m going with English.

Here, I’m getting this warning message. I’m installing Deepin on VirtualBox. It’s normal to ignore it. Of course, if you’re installing Deepin as the native system, you’ll end up having a better system.

Enter the username and other credentials for your account.

Select your current time zone.

It’s time to choose the installation location. As you’re able to see, there are 2 options available – “Simple” and “Advanced”.

In the “Advanced” section, you can change the bootloader and manage partitions as much as you like. For creating a new partition, click the icon at the end of the “Freespace” entry.

After you’re ready, time to start the installation process! Don’t forget to review the installation summary to make sure that everything is alright and going according to your plan.
