That's where your eyes go? That's interesting. My eyes skip the banner with its embedded "download me" link (because it's a friggin' BANNER, and decades of web use have taught me to skip all banners), and skip the small print sections, and drop me straight to the link that says "obtain a copy" <https://www.debian.org/distrib/>. On the second page, there's "Download an installation image" and "Try Debian live before installing". Sadly, the instructions under the "Try Debian live" link claim that the live image's installer will work. We all know that it doesn't, but the instructions continue to claim that it does. > , then choose the only possibly > viable alternative to CD/DVD, since there's no CD/DVD on the new host. You also skipped the "Network install" link right above your "CD/USB ISO images" link. I wonder why. On the page you went to, there are two yellow lightbulb boxes, one saying to use "Network Install" instead, and the second saying "all CD/DVD images can be used on a USB stick too". Somehow you skipped over those as well.
