"The image you just obtained is ready to burn." So does your headless machine have a CD-ROM (or DVD, or Blu-ray) drive from which it is set to boot if a bootable medium is present ? If you try this from USB stick, hard disk, or memory card, then you need to specially prepare the ISO before putting it onto the storage device. In above case, a run of program "isohybrid" from package "syslinux-utils". Just run isohybrid custom_install.iso I just finished the initial text of a wiki page about the step of packing up a Debian ISO without losing any of its boot capabilities. https://wiki.debian.org/RepackBootableISO Have a nice day :) Thomas
