Surely you want to use dd.<br>
<br>
cp would assume the device is already formatted and mounted, and will just copy the iso to a file on the usb stick.<br>

Regarding installing from USB....<br />
These days if you are setting up a USB stick to install debian from
and you have a linux system available to do the task all that is
needed is to <br />
<small><i> cp debian.iso /dev/sdXX</i></small><br />
so if your USB stick is coming up as /dev/sdb just run<br />
<small><i> cp debian.iso /dev/sdb</i></small><br />
<br />
I can't remember the recommended windows tool, but the debian
installation guide will point you in the right direction.<br />
You no longer need to use special tools that manipulate ISO's to
install from USB.<br />
All debian, and most derivatives use hybrid ISO's that can be booted
from cd/dvd/usb/hdd directly.<br />
<br />

<div>Debian is easy to install just head to their website and
download the right iso, for installing from usb you can google a
load of usb iso installers depending on what OS your starting
with I used lili today from a Windows box to osx and it worked
fine. </div>

<div>On the topic of WordPress go for it but be prepared to harden

I'm looking to install Debian on a web server and would like to
get the<br />
groups option. <br />
As I have always used SuSE Enterprise Linux as my servers for
everything,<br />
changing to Debian is a choice I decided to make due to support
issues.<br />
My question is I want to install Debian from either a DVD or USB,
can I get<br />
a link to download the files I would imagine an iso would do the
trick.<br />
The web server I'm planning to install is run on Debian will be
WordPress.<br />
Is there anyone that is against this and if so why?<br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks <br />
<br />
Jon<br />
