This doesn't sound unreasonable as a suggestion but the Installation Manual may not be best place to put such hints. In the FAQ at http://www.debian.org/CD/ there are sections for recording a CD-R under Windows and Mac OS so, considering all the CD images are recordable to a USB stick, this may be a more suitable document to offer any advice you think is useful. I'd suggest you contact one of the mailing lists mentioned on that page (debian-boot?) and make some proposals for improving the information for users of other OSs wanting to put a Debian image on a USB medium. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Buying an external > drive shouldn't be the easiest option. It's not (the easiest option). There are (at least) four other ways to install Debian without a CD - and they all take less effort to do than complaining.

And you are welcome, indeed invited, to change that. Consider that the purpose of Debian is *not* to soley serve your "demands", and the nature of Debian is to allow you to "contribute" (not whine) and modify it to suit your purposes. If you feel like returning some of the benefits you gain from Debian - then documenting the processes you learned is a nice idea.

Which version of Windoof? How about Plan 9, Oberon, AmigaOS, OS/2, and many, many others? Should one particular piece of third-party software needed for a non-Debian OS should be suggested over another? Those are all potential problems with including the information you desire into that particular piece of documentation. The original complainer was not unable to find the answer - just too lazy to filter and read. I agree that too much Debian related information is (selfishly?) on personal websites and blogs *instead* of on the main Debian site. The debian wiki is a good place for that - provided any solutions given promote practices in keeping with the Debian Social contract, standards and procedures. 1. Download a live CD. 2. Learn to use a search engine. 3. Contribute to the wiki.debian.org (please). 4. Realise that no matter how much you'd like it to be different - the world owes you nothing, and knowledge comes from effort - not something sprinkled on your breakfast cereal. Sometimes the solution is not as "simple" as the question. Hint: ask the "right question" in the "right way" and the answer is easy. example queries that will get the answer:- http://www.google.com/search?q=how+do+i+install+debian+from+a+usb+key http://www.google.com/search?q=debian+installation+from+a+usb+stick http://www.google.com/search?q=installing+debian+without+a+cdrom or ask duckduckgo "how do i install debian from windows" Cheers -- “I never got along with my dad.

Why? Seriously. I'm sure the writers would love to work out a way to make their work more accessible - just as many of the readers of this list would appreciate *not* being asked the same question over and over.

(for those who eschew the official documentation) Meaning that if people are too lazy to look on Debian.org, but motivated to write to the list - the very least they could do is search the list. I appreciate that some, for whatever reason, don't know how to do that - so I've provided a custom search link.

Re: Re: installing debian from USB... IS IT POSSIBLE?
Hi, I haven't checked it but I may be installed on USB. I installed ubuntu and other live distro from usb , by using unetbootin. So if you use inetbootin to install the iso ( regular CD1 iso) to usb, then reboot from the usb and you can install on hard disk thru this usb. We must to check it. I have installed debian and other ubuntu on usb hard disk, (extern HD), and I can reboot fron the usd HD, even the PC doesn't contain any linux system. It is a good idea to have a system on an extern HD, you canrun linux on machine running just window$ for example, by booting from your HD. best regards abd bela.

Even though I don't feel this is the most productive way to ask for assistance, I must confess to being able to relate to it due to having felt similar frustration in the past. In trying myself to find an answer to how to get an iso for a usb-stick, I found it was a bit of a maze. From many of the links on the issue, I was led to this: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/squeeze/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso (snip) Anyway, seems confusing to me, too. Given that some usb-sticks can store even more material than a dvd, and given that usb-sticks are commonly the only removable drives on a lot of computer devices today (IE, laptops), why the links for installing Debian group usb-sticks as "other images (netboot, usb stick, floppy, etc)", rather than having a specific entry for it as they do for cdrom, dvd, and even blu-ray, is a mystery. So, can the netinst-cdrom image be used with a usb-stick? And if so, why the different listing for usb-sticks? And if not, why not? I don't know why the different listings exist.
