{{Installation navbox}}
In decreasing order of simplicity, here are a few options:
* (simplest) If you distribution supports [[TeX Live]] packages, use them. Debian, Ubuntu, openSUSE, Gentoo, Fedora, Arch and Mandriva (if not too old) do so. See [[Debian installation]] or [[Ubuntu installation]].
* Otherwise, use a fresh [[TeX Live]] installation. The problem with this method is that you'll probably have to redo the installation once a year, when the new TeX Live DVD comes out.
If you will use TeX Live, you have to delete the distribution-provided teTeX packages (if they exist).
Debian_TeXlive_install (Debian/linux and Debian/kfreebsd)
* [[Debian installation| install ConTeXt on Debian]]
* [[Ubuntu installation| install ConTeXt on Ubuntu]]
* [[Debian TeXlive install| install TeXlive on Debian]]
