Just to be clear, you want to install Debian on the USB flash drive,
*not* install Debian on the computer *from* the USB flash drive? Yes?
If so:-
1. do a little research and plan what you want to install - desktop,
server, mixture. Will it be portable or only run on this one computer?
Which desktop do you want to install? How will it connect to the
internet - if that's important, what hardware will it use, is that
hardware supported "out of the box"? (you can ask here for answers).
2. burn only the 1st DVD (debian-7.5.0-amd64-DVD-1)
3. plugin the USB flash drive, put the burnt DVD in the DVD drive,
reboot the computer. You may need to modify your boot order and device
capability in the BIOS, or you may have a Function Key for your BIOS
that allows you to choose boot device (F8, F10).
4. boot into the Debian installer on the DVD, choose the appropriate
option from the installation start screen based on step 1. (ask here for
help).
Most of what you will want to install (statistically speaking) is on the
first DVD. Everything you need to later install from the other DVDs is
on the first DVD. You can always install packages from the other DVDs
just using the iso files - so you may never need to use, or burn (if you
do use) the other DVD iso files.
Kind regards
