With amd64-netinst ISOs, all three of /dev/sdX{,1,2} should be
mountable. sdX and sdX1 will appear identical as they both start at
sector 0. sdX2 is FAT because it's the EFI partition.
Obviously arm64-DVD ISOs might differ somewhat, but my question is
whether, having written the ISO to sdl, did you try and boot from it,
or did you mystify yourself by trying to mount the partitions and
then abandon the process in favour of:
> Now writing it to /dev/sdl1.
which is an odd thing to do.
