Re: Debian live on usb.
Under Linux I do it by running the following command as root:
dd if=live.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M
where X is often "b". I have replaced this with "X" here to prevent
accidents. This command writes the raw bytes of the live iso image to
the raw device. This should work for an isohybrid image and a USB thumb
drive large enough to hold it.
Be very very very careful to use the correct /dev/sdX as the target will
be overwritten ("a" is often your main hard disk). Plug in your USB
device and look at kernel messages with "dmesg". For example, when I
plug in a USB drive, I see:
[sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk
Check every time because USB drives are assigned the first available
letter and you do not want to overwrite the wrong drive.
Kind regards,
Ben.
