+## You have an empty drive
+
+Cool, easiest way! When you have an empty drive, just start GParted
+and select in the right up corner your correct drive you want to install
+nanodesk on.
+
+After that click in the upper Menu the entry 'Drive' and select
+'create partitiontable'.
+
+In the upcoming dialoge select 'ms-dos' abd 'Apply'.
+
+Now right click in the empty bar representing your drive and select 
+'New'. 
+
+First we create your root filesystem. It gets most of the space, just
+let around 4-8GB space left after free for a swap partition we create
+afterwards.
+
+Create as 'Primary' and select 'ext4' as filesystem. Confirm that with
+'OK' and repeat the steps with the leftover diskspace and create a 
+partition with the 'linux-swap' filesystem.
+
+When you done all this we need to activate our changes. Select 'Edit'
+from the upper Menu and choose 'Apply All Operations' and confirm.
+
+When all operations are done successfully, close GParted and click on
+'Install' in the nanodesk-installer.

+Here you have to enter the path to your drive with the

+
+    /dev/sda1
+    
+Which says it's the first drive in the system (sdA) and the first 
+partition on it (sda1).
+
+If you are not sure, you can abort here and open nanodesk-installer 
+again. Open again GParted to verify that you choose the correct drive.
+
+# commandline nanodesk-installer
+
+In the next step the core of the installer, the commandline tool
+`/usr/sbin/nanodesk-installer` opens up in a new xterm window.
+
+Confirm the start of the installation by typing 'YES' all upper case 
+and confirm it by pressing [ENTER].
+
+When the base system is installed, you can choose if you want to keep

+or you also can remove this default user and create your own new one

+## install to disk: nanodesk-installer
 
 You can install nanodesk to your harddrive. Before doing so,
 you have to get your drive partitioned and formated. 
 
-Partitioning on an empty drive is simple, you need two partitions
+Under `Menu -> System -> nanodesk-installer` you find the GUI 
+of the nanodesk-installer. It will guide you through the first basic
+partitioning steps and formating your drive with `GParted`.
+The installation process itself is done by the `nanodesk-installer` cli.
 
-- partition1: ext4, main filesystem. 
-- partition2: swap, optional but recommended. About 20%-50% the size of your RAM.
+You can also just run the cli directly running
+`sudo nanodesk-installer [TARGET]`
 
-You can use `Menu -> System -> GParted` or `fdisk` on the shell for this.
-Please read their manuals.
-
-This done, just run `sudo nanodesk-installer /dev/sdXY` from the terminal
-and the installation will start. (change /dev/sdXY to your drive)
+Keep in Mind, that `[TARGET]` needs to be a (ext4) preformated 
+blockdevice and should be a partition.
