Thanks for the tip... it never would have occurred to me to dd any sort of iso onto the stick directly! I should have paid more attention to what's "hybrid" about these images in the manual (obvious on rereading section 4.2 and 4.3.1 though). I just dd-ed debian-squeeze-live-beta2-i386-rescue.iso onto a USB stick and that boots great. Thanks again Tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
