# Installation Overview
You can install Pantheon by:
* [Installing the binary distribution](Install-Binaries.md)
* [Building from source](Build-From-Source.md)
!!! note
To run a single node to connect the Ethereum mainnet or a public testnet, running from the [Pantheon docker image](../Getting-Started/Run-Docker-Image.md) is the fastest way to get started.
Disk space needed varies depending on the network on which you run nodes. A small test network might require 200 MB while a mainnet node might require 1.5TB. If syncing a node on mainnet, allow 1.5 TB to 2 TB for the full blockchain archive.
