| Not sure what [[http://www.sagemath.org/download.html|to download]]? This short guide should get you started. A [[http://wiki.sagemath.org/DownloadGuide|longer version]] of this guide is also available. 1. Determine your operating system. (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris, etc.) 1. Determine your CPU type. (32-bit, [[http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/win/64bit.html|64-bit]] or "atom" for Linux and Intel or PowerPC for MacOS) 1. Do you want a source or binary distribution? Even if you want to do development, a precompiled version of Sage (binary release) can be used for that purpose. The source distribution is mostly needed if you want to see the sources of the Sage packages, also known as [[spkg|SPKGs]]. 1. If available, choose the appropriate binary version from one of the [[http://www.sagemath.org/mirrors.html|download mirrors]]. 1. Follow the [[http://www.sagemath.org/doc/installation/binary.html|binary installation guide]] to actually install a pre-compiled version of Sage. The [[http://www.sagemath.org/doc/installation/source.html|source installation guide]] contains more detailed information on compiling Sage from source. == Metalink == [[http://www.metalinker.org/|Metalinks]] ([[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalink|Wikipedia]], [[http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/using_metalinks|FSM]]) are XML files that contain multiple download sources and various checksums. Use them with a download manager below, if you want to make sure that your download works properly, automatically selects a fast mirror, recovers in case of a download server failure, if you want to pause and resume a download later or check'n'repair a broken file.

Troubleshooting
If no binary version is available for your system, download the source version. Note that Sage compiles on a wide variety of systems, but does not compile on every system.
- If you are not sure how to unpack the compressed file or its ending looks different:
*.tar.gz or *.tgz: Use tar xzf *.tar.gz
*.tar.bzip2 or *.tar.bz2: Use tar xjf *.tar.bzip2
*.app.dmg or *.dmg: This is a Mac disk image, and you can just double-click it.
*.tar.lzma: Use tar --lzma -xf *.tar.lzma
No lzma? Perhaps you have xz, that is compatible with lzma. There might also be -J in tar -xJf *.tar.lzma or you need to install an lzma or xz-utils package.
If the file ending is different, the Linux command file gives you information about the archive type. (Type file filename.ext at the command prompt.)
The Release tour corresponding to the Sage version that you wish to install may offer version-specific installation help that has become available after the release was made and is therefore not covered by the installation manual.
