Package: debian-installer-manual Severity: normal
Section 4.4 of the manual states: "For preparing the USB stick you will need a system where GNU/Linux is already running and where USB is supported", whereas in fact it's also possible under Windows. Here is how to do it: 1. get "dd for Windows" from http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/rawwrite/dd.htm 2. download the boot.img.gz (use WinZip to decompress) and the sarge-i386-netinst.iso 3. start Windows commandline, find out the device name with: dd --list 4. write boot.img to USB-stick, for example if your stick is "e:": dd if=boot.img of=\\.\e: bs=1M 5. copy sarge-i386-netinst.iso to stick 6. reboot and install Debian :) Cheers, Heike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
