Re: How exactly do I create a Debian live USB?



That cp command looks fine, but if you want to try using dd with
offsets, try:

sudo dd if=debian-live-11.0.0-amd64-standard.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M

if is input file, of is output file, bs is blocksize which I set to 4MB
which is a typical block size

If that still doesn't work it's likely an issue with the USB flash drive
you're using.
