Package: debian-installer-manual Severity: normal I tried to follow the instructions from section 4.4: http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/ch04s04.html
Unfortunately syslinux is not usable with my USB key: $ sudo syslinux /dev/sda1 syslinux: only 512-byte sectors are supported And effectively dmesg says: SCSI device sda: 498175 2048-byte hdwr sectors (1020 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 00 00 00 sda: assuming drive cache: write through sda: sda1 sd 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sda I'd suggest to document that limitation and how to check the size of the sectors of your key. I googled for a solution but I found none. Maybe we will have one for lenny but right now I see nothing.
