Where the first sentence reads: "To prepare the USB stick, you will
need a system where GNU/Linux is already running and where USB is
supported.". So, to install Debian from an USB-stick you need a system
where Debian (for example) is installed. Smells recursion here :-)

IMHO there should be some hints what to do if the user currently is
running something else than GNU/Linux, like Windows or OS X.
