+
+## Install as packages
+
+This is the recommended method of installing Bitmask. If installed as a package, Bitmask will run faster, be better integrated in the system, and will be kept up to date.
+
+### Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr)
+
+<%= render({:partial => 'via_packages'}, {:distro => 'trusty'}) %>
+
+### Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander)
+
+<%= render({:partial => 'via_packages'}, {:distro => 'saucy'}) %>
+
+### Debian 7.0 (Wheezy)
+
+Note: for wheezy, these instructions will enable `wheezy-backports`, causing your computer to install more up-to-date versions of many packages. For more information, see the [Debian backports page](https://wiki.debian.org/Backports).
+
+<%= render({:partial => 'via_packages'}, {:distro => 'wheezy', :os => 'debian'}) %>
+
+### Debian 8.0 (Jessie)
+
+<%= render({:partial => 'via_packages'}, {:distro => 'jessie', :os => 'debian'}) %>
+
+## Install stand-alone bundle
+
+Alternately, you can run Bitmask from a stand alone bundle. This is useful if want to run Bitmask from a thumb drive. The bundle should work on most recent Linux distributions that are derived from Debian (e.g. Ubuntu, Mint, etc).
+
+There are several disadvantages to the stand-alone bundle:
+
+* Installing via the bundle takes up more space.
+* The Bitmask app will be less well integrated with the desktop environment.
+* Running from the bundle is slower to start than via packages.
+* You will not get automatic updates running the stand alone bundle.
+
+How do you tell if you running a 32 bit or 64 bit kernel? Run the following command:
+
+    uname -m
+
+If the result is:
+
+* `x86_64`, you have **64 bit**
+* `i686`, you have **32 bit**
+* `i386`, you have **32 bit**
+
+### 32 bit kernel
+
+<%= render({:partial => 'common/download_button'}, {:link => '/client/linux/Bitmask-linux32-latest.tar.bz2', :text => 'Download 32 bit'}) %>
+
+### 64 bit kernel
+
+<%= render({:partial => 'common/download_button'}, {:link => '/client/linux/Bitmask-linux64-latest.tar.bz2', :text => 'Download 64 bit'}) %>
+
+### Other options
+
+If you want to install an old or development version of Bitmask, you can [browse all releases.](/client/linux/)
