Bug#856689: live-image-gnome-desktop: iso can't be installed on usb using cp command



Package: live-image-gnome-desktop
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
I downloaded the live install image from here

http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current-live/amd64/bt-hybrid/

   then tried to create a bootable USB flash drive using it

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I copied the the image to the device as described in the manual

$cp debian-live-8.7.1-amd64-gnome-desktop.iso /dev/sdb

   * What was the outcome of this action?

The USB flash drivecan't boot (the partition does not even show up)

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Expected it to boot

   * Identified problem

After inspection of the flash drive, it seems the created partition type is
Hidden HPFS/NTFS

   * Fix

I changed the partition type to HPFS/NTFS/exFAT using fdisk
