Pretty sure thats what > I did for the last install I did. Same here. My last install with an USB stick (2 months ago) must have been as easy as dd'ing or cat'ing the ISO to a device since I don't remember any details or even problems, and I'm quite sure I didn't hunt down any additional files or used any non-standard tools. (I think it was a testing image from February or something similar, in case they are different .... Ah, I still have it, debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso, downloaded on March 4th.)
