Greeting.

A proposal for the manual. It's about "dd" "of" device path,
since "school teachers with IT knowledge" are potential readers.

SECTION
=======
Installation using USB flash drives instead of CD / Blu-ray discs

Current
-------
sudo dd if=debian-edu-amd64-XXX.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1024

Proposal
--------
Use fast USB stick such as MLC type especially for BD image,
since cheap ones are very slow on write operation.

lsblk # confirm the system state, BEFORE INSERTING USB STICK.

lsblk -p # confirm the system state, BEFORE INSERTING USB STICK.

lsusb # confirm your USB stick.
lsblk # confirm your USB stick device path such like "/dev/sdX".

lsblk -p # confirm your USB stick device path such like "/dev/sdX".

Regards,
