Note that he is not using the standard Debian ISO which can be burned to a CD or (I believe) cat'd to a USB stick. He is using Debian Live, which has the ability to run the Debian installer -- although that adds a layer of complexity that most of us on this list are probably not experienced with. -Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
