Indeed, mentioning a DVD image there would be senseful: Index: en/install-methods/boot-usb-files.xml =================================================================== --- en/install-methods/boot-usb-files.xml (Revision 69246) +++ en/install-methods/boot-usb-files.xml (Arbeitskopie) @@ -163,8 +163,8 @@ If you like more flexibility or just want to know what's going on, you should use the following method to put the files on your stick. One advantage of using this method is that — if the capacity of your -USB stick is large enough — you have the option of copying a -full CD ISO image to it. +USB stick is large enough — you have the option of copying any +ISO image, even a DVD image to it. </para> Thanks Holger -- Holger Wansing <hwans...@mailbox.org> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
