Are you cutting and pasting console sessions verbatim? /def/sdf looks
like a typo...
As other posters have mentioned, you might have to mess with CMOS
settings.
I've also found that not all USB ports are created equal.
So, N CMOS settings and M ports creates N * M combinations to test.
Rather than using a Live distribution or an installer image on USB
flash, I've found that:
1. I can install Debian onto a USB flash drive.
2. I can place a Debian system drive image onto a USB flash drive.
