Re: Booting Debian 10 installer ISO from USB

installer mount and search every partition to find an ISO. This is time consuming. The second point is that an ISO on another partition might be found and used. What happens if it is a jessie ISO? Why not label the partition on the USB drive and use the boot option shared/enter_device=/dev/disk/by-label/ I would also put the ISO in / or /iso. > For this matter, why isn't iso-scan/filename actually working? You need to sort out the above first before proceeding with this. -- Brian.
