Re: finding the right .iso for USB install of Squeeze

Any suggestion on where to set this?

On startup, the USB installer goes right to language selection - no splash screen or other opportunity to adjust the invocation.

I tried adding it to syslinux.cfg (append INSTALL_MEDIA_DEV=/dev/sdc1) but that doesn't seem to work. Exiting to shell reports that the installer thinks INSTALL_MEDIA_DEV=/dev/ - AND now its mounted /dev/sda1 as /dev/hd-media - it doesn't see the stick at all
