No further complains, so assuming that using the "dd" method fixed this
issue.
With other words, a Rufus issue maybe?

We don't recommend Rufus at https://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#write-usb
or in the installation-guide, so maybe there is an issue with Rufus 
regarding our installation images, and we are not aware of this issue,
because only few people use the "Rufus" method (with our images)?

Just a thought ...
