It seems that the USB drive capacity is slightly smaller than the ISO image

USB drive capacity: 7700480 sectors / 3.94 GB / 3.67 GiB
DVD-1 image size: 7758432 sectors / 3.97 GB / 3.70 GiB
The DVD image size is slightly lower than 4 GB to fit into most 4-GB USB
drives but unfortunately there are USB drives whose actual capacity is
significantly lower than the rated capacity.
Didn't it trigger an error when writing the image to the USB drive ?
In recreating writing the image to the USB drive (with dd), it did
show an error, but previously I didn't notice that. So of course it
didn't work properly. I'm very sorry for the spurious bug report and
the waste of your time.
OK, thanks for confirming. debian-cd maintainers may consider reducing
the DVD-1 image size a bit more to fit in smaller USB drives.
