Just so you do not get confused: the wiki page

   http://wiki.debian.org/DebianAcerOne#Preparing_the_USB_flash_drive

was written before isohybrid isos became standard in Debian. An
isohybrid image can be written directly to a USB device, making the
section 'Creating a USB flash boot drive' outdated. The link to the
Installation Manual is also to a version which has been replaced.
