    Not sure about the liveCD, but you should be able to do a "netinstall" of Debian Testing (Squeeze):

    Index of /cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd

    Index of /cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-cd

    You'll need to decide if you want 64-bit or 32-bit Debian, then decide which image you want to install from (I use the businesscard image for my own netinstalls), download that image, burn it to disk as an image, then boot your machine with the newly created installation disk. After installing the base system, you can get the rest of the packages that you might want online, using apt.
