Hi,
I tried to boot DebianLive from my NTFS USB-Stick, which failed. The
kernel was unable to find the filesystem. Perhaps due missing NTFS support?
The debian live images are intended to be copied to the root of the USB device.
They are stand-alone bootable .iso images, hybrid images which will work on
either DOS-MBR boot environments, or also UEFI-GPT secure boot environments.
Do not process the image, or modify it, or add extra boot software, just copy it
to your chosen medium. See section 4.3 of the Debian Live Manual:
https://live-team.pages.debian.net/live-manual/html/live-manual/index.en.html
Suggested tools for writing a bootable .iso image onto a USB stick from Windows
include win32diskimager http://sf.net/projects/win32diskimager/
or even rufus, if you are careful to select its DD mode before writing.
