“LMDE Xfce is the second Debian-based edition to be released.
The first (see Linux Mint Debian Edition review) is powered by the
GNOME desktop environment. This article presents a detailed review
of LMDE Xfce.

“Installation: The installer of LMDE (all LMDE releases use the
same installer) is still a work in progress. Unlike Linux Mint
edition installer, there is no auto-partition and installation
mode, so disk partitioning must be done manually, with GParted
called on for that task. Manual disk partitioning guide for Linux
Mint Debian Edition provides a step-by-step for those who might
need some hand-holding in doing it.”
