 # Installation
+
 Grafana is easily installed via a Debian/Ubuntu package (.deb), via Redhat/Centos package (.rpm) or manually via
 a tar that contains all required files and binaries. If you can't find a package or binary for your platform you might be able
 to build one your self, read [build from source](../project/building_from_source) instructions for more information.
 
-## Ubuntu & Debian
+- [Installing on Debian / Ubuntu](debian.md)
-Start by [downloading](http://grafana.org/download) the latest `.deb` package.

-Execute this to add a grafana user:
-
-    sudo useradd -r grafana

-### Package details
-The `.deb` and the `rpm` package install will do the following
-
-- Install binary to `/usr/sbin/grafana-server`
-- Init.d script to `/etc/init.d/grafana-server`
-- Default file (environment vars) to `/etc/default/grafana-server` (deb package) or `/etc/sysconfig/grafana-server` (for the rpm package)
-- Configuration file to `/etc/grafana/grafana.ini`
-- Systemd service (if systemd is available) name `grafana-server.service`
-- The default configuration specifies log file at `/var/log/grafana/grafana.log`
-- The default configuration specifies sqlite3 db at `/var/lib/grafana/grafana.db`

-### Start the server (init.d service)
-
-- Start grafana by `sudo service grafana-server start`
-- This will start the grafana-server process as the `grafana` user (created during package install)
-- Default http port is `3000`, and default user is admin/admin
