Hello,

Thank you.

You can select GUI installation from the installation images, Live images as well have a option to install.

I don't recommend using the live image to install Debian. The net install works well. and has a GUI installer.
Good Luck.

... but I try to see where it is and I can't find it anywhere; that's why I thought that maybe with some command I could be able to bring it ...

I also looked in the applications menu, I can't find anything related to an installer.

Thanks

It was quite long ago, when I did it (installation from Live disk), so don't rememeber exactly what I did.

But you can burn a small network install cd, or copy it to a usb-key,

I'm sure there must be some way to get it, maybe someone can come by later and point it out, thanks.

Live-CD images have Calamares https://www.debian.org/CD/live/

So run calamares from the terminal maybe?

I use the Xfce live image and there is an install icon on the desktop, I can't say whether it is there on other images though as I haven't tested them.

At the latest three weekly builds of debian live testing is missing calamares. Why?
