Manual: FIXME: Describe installing Debian Live to a partition (e.g. /dev/sdc1) AND using a bootloader

[Philippe LeléŽdy <debian@leledy.fr>]

I routinely use USB ext2 partitions to boot Debian Live and I would like 
to contribute my howto  to the manual.

I don't know in which section it should go to:

3.3.1. Copying USB/HDD image to a USB stick

or

5.3.2. Bootloaders like  5.3.2.4. Booting a Debian Live USB/HDD system 
from a USB stick with Grub.

There is doubt because booting is at least a 2 phases process 

-1- kernel/initrd (--> 5.3.2)
-2- searching /live (--> 3.3.1)

usually  the installation is seen as a whole, but actually it can be 
split  in 2/3/4  differents partitions.

Here is my description:

instead of the  5.3.2.4. mentionned commands

# mkdir /media/myUsb/boot/live/
# cp binary/vmlinuz1 binary/initrd1.img binary/live/filesystem.squashfs 
/media/myUsb/boot/live/

use

# mkdir /media/myUsb/live
# cp binary/vmlinuz1 binary/initrd1.img binary/live/filesystem.squashfs 
/media/myUsb/live/

then cp -a ???/syslinux /media/myUsb/

#cd /media/myUsb/syslinux
#ln -s syslinux.cfg extlinux.conf
#extlinux -i .
#cat /usr/lib/syslinux/mbr.bin  >  /dev/disk/by-label/myUsb
