I made many test but what is more significant ( i think) is that the same usb stick with memtest86 (proposed from pendrive as a testing case[1]) :
but if following the debian installation instructions[2] i execute: # cp debian.iso /dev/sdX # sync After rebooting i see no messsage so ever, and the system boot from hard disk. I checked usb stick with fdisk -l and the fs type is: W95 FAT32 and i can see debian files in the contents of the stick. I tested debian-7-6-0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso debian-testing-amd64-CD-1.iso Alexandros Prekates http://librebytes.gr [1] http://www.pendrivelinux.com/testing-your-system-for-usb-boot-compatibility/ [2] https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch04s03.html.en -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
