That works. Your choice of directory names in the path to the files extracted from each ISO broke my current mental logjam. Thanks On 02/05/2021 10:21 AM, Jeremy Andrews wrote: Hi Richard, Here's what I would probably do: - create directories on your USB or partition for each of the DVDs -

Re: Problems installing from flash drive.

Hi Richard, Here's what I would probably do: - create directories on your USB or partition for each of the DVDs - extract each ISO, and place the contents in the directories - if using a separate partition, mount it in your fstab at a location such as /mnt/deb, or if using a USB, just make sure t
