USB disk to start the installation from the system in two ways. The first is entirely through network installation. The second is to copy the CD image to the U disk as the source package and can be combined with other images. The second method is more commonly used a number. For the first installation, you need to download and install the image from the netboot directory, and in accordance with the following called "flexible approach" to copy files to the USB disk. All the best.
The installation of the image on the harddisk-media directory, you can adopt the "easy way" or "flexible approach" to copy it to the USB disk. This installation mode you also need to download a CD image. Installation CD image and the image should be the same for debian-installer release. Check and reply.
In order to prepare USB disk, you need a USB-run GNU / Linux systems. The current GNU / Linux system will insert a U disk in your time of automatic identification. If not, you should confirm whether the usb-storage kernel module has been loaded. USB disk inserted, it will be mapped to the named / dev / sdX equipment, where "X" is the letters az. You can run the dmesg In after-hours to confirm whether USB insertion was mapped properly. Using this method will destroy anything already on the device. Make sure you are using the correct USB-disk device name. If the mistake, such as written in the hard disk, it will cause all of the information on the device is lost. All the best.
U disk at least 256MB of capacity, First copy files - an easy way to collection hd-media/boot.img.gz have a file that contains all the installer files (including the kernel), and the syslinux and the corresponding configuration file. You should be noted that, although convenient, but the method has one major drawback: Even if U disk large, the device is still limited to the logical size of 256 MB. If you want the USB disk used for other purposes, the need for it to re-partition, for the remaining capacity to create a new file system. Minor drawback is that you can not copy a complete CD image to the U disk, only the use of smaller businesscard or netinst CD image. All the best.
You can choose to use a text interface or the graphical installation interface to install programs. The latter can be obtained from the gtk subdirectory. If you need to change the file name, please note that syslinux just follow the DOS (8.3) named. Next, you need to create a syslinux.cfg configuration file, which at least contain the following two lines:
For the graphical installer, you need to add video = vesa: ywrap, mtrr vga = 788 to the second line of the tail. If you use the hd-media image should now copy the Debian ISO image (businesscard, netinst or a full CD image; identified as suitable for a) to the U disk. Then, uninstall the U drive (umount / mnt).Code:default vmlinuz append initrd = initrd.gz
