Seems to me, what is perhaps needed is more localized support, or
knowing where the people with the right skills to create these usb
disks are (I have a few Debian 10 install usb disks made up, usually
for the South Devon Tech Jam - just in case I need one)
This adds weight to the value of social meet ups, we can communicate
on all manner of e-mail lists, irc, social media, but actually having
a face to face meet up makes life so much easier when providing support.
I would urge people to ask about basic Linux courses at places where
they may run basic computer courses using Windows, if we can try and
create the demand maybe things will change, until then your basic
course will just be how to use windows, word, facebook, outlook,
google etc. With no mention of the fact there are alternatives.
