Re: debian install
Try
cat youriso.iso > /dev/sdX (Raw device, not partition!)
With some broken BIOSes (no isohybrid support) the intaller
will work like a charm.

I can't figure out how to reference the usb filesystem that I have the .iso on, and I am confused about how to mount a usb drive and then access it through the terminal. the usb drive is plugged in and was used successfully at previous points in the installation, but I still can't figure out how to cd to the usb drive so that I can access the .iso. any suggestions?
