Hi, i added to merge_debian_isos the capability to burn the resulting ISO 9660 filesystem directly to optical media and to write it directly to storage device files. This removes the need for having substantial free disk space beyond the capacity to store the original ISO images.
While burning to optical media is quite a harmless operation for the normal user, writing to USB stick devices is not. Therefore merge_debian_iso can cooperate with xorriso-dd-target, my offer for safe copying of image files onto USB sticks on GNU/Linux. I created https://wiki.debian.org/MergeDebianIsos to describe installation, feeding, and usage of merge_debian_isos. Review and testing are welcome. (The same applies to the older https://wiki.debian.org/XorrisoDdTarget ) Have a nice day :) Thomas
