So, if I understand properly, you're suggesting that the template mentions that what is searched for is a "Debian" installer ISO, right? If so, I would propose "scan hard drives for a supported installer ISO image"....and a small update to the installation manual to mention that ISO images have to be named s specific way. This way, we avoid "branding" by "Debian" and the template can still be used by derived distros (I suspect they do patch iso-scan in order to search for ISO images prepended by FooBar_).
