============
Knot DNS may be already included in your operating system distribution and
therefore can be installed from packages (Linux) or ports (BSD). This is
always preferred unless you want to test the latest features, contribute to
Knot development, or you just know what you are doing.
Following sections describe how to build Knot DNS from the source code.
Installation on Debian based distributions
==========================================
The following steps should work (verified in VirtualBox only)
on the distribution/architecture/release combinations as listed bellow.
