I sometimes install Debian on machines belonging to family and friends. On my latest install I tried the boot.img.gz on an USB-stick. It failed halfway trough, complaining about a missing suitable ISO-image. Not wasting time, I dd'ed the netinstall iso onto the stick and installed.
As far as I know, the debian-6.0.2.1-i386-netinst.iso is the ONLY one that can be used on both USB and CD-rom. Why not give debian-6.0.2.1-i386-CD-1.iso the same functionality???? The netinstall-image install requires much time on slow lines. I HAVE tried dd'ing debian-6.0.2.1-i386-CD-1.iso to a stick. It will not boot. Didn't expect it to do either. Had to try. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
