This is silly. Why is discussing how to give more/better instructions for creating a Linux installation disk on Windows trolling?! You have to assume that potential first-time Linux users, who don't have a Linux-using friend who can/wants to help, are going to want to do so and that they might want to use a flash disk rather than a CD/DVD. If I had a non-work-supplied-totally-locked-down Windows installation, I'd try the Ubuntu solution for Debian (that application looked like it had a drop-down menu with a list of distributions) and suggest some changes to the "burn an ISO on Windows" page of the Debian documentation. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
