No. It is the wrong flavor of SYSLINUX software and much too old. Even debian-8.1.0-amd64-netinst.iso has "ISOLINUX 6.03 20150107" and debian-9.3.0-amd64-netinst.iso has "ISOLINUX 6.03 20171018". (mount as /mnt/iso and do strings /mnt/iso/isolinux/isolinux.bin | fgrep ISOLINUX | less to see the message text of the boot program. ) Our new friend Larry sees "Syslinux 4.03 2010-10-22", which i would blame on boot preparations on the USB stick which should have been overwritten by the ISO, if it was copied correctly. Next mail from to...@tuxteam.de: > so yes, this could be just the "leftovers" > from an older use of that USB stick. ... or from a fresh attempt to install the ISO onto the USB stick by one of the ISO-to-stick converters (unetbootin, Rufus, ...). Have a nice day :) Thomas
