Thanks.  I tried that last week with debian-508-i386-netinst.iso and couldn't
get the desktop to boot from it, despite trying the likely BIOS settings.
Someone suggested that this would only work with a hybrid iso.  Is that the
case?  Can you tell me where to get a hybrid iso?

That site also describes manually copying file to the USB disk, and I can try
that too if necessary.
