Hi Euan,<br>
<br>
In days past you would be correct.<br>
The current instructions are to use cp to copy the ISO directly to
the raw device.<br>
<br>
See <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch04s03.html.en">https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch04s03.html.en</a><br>

cp ...?<br>
<br>
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>

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>

<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

learn csf and read it's documentation properly first. </div>

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>
