Hi,
the advantages of putting an unmodified ISO image plainly onto a USB are:

Well, once you eliminate the search of installation media by label

we've been dealing with here, is actually the biggest limitation of

Hi Cyril,
The regression, in my opinion, is that the standard release of bullseye
made sure that all the packages that may be required for a successful
installation would be available for users who did not create their media
using 'dd', whereas bookworm doesn't.
Whereas one could use file

It is when you consider from a standpoint that an image created with
'dd' should perform the same in terms of being able to retrieve .deb
packages as one that is created through file system transposition.

Hi Ram,
In case you plugged your media at any time on a Windows system, please
be aware that Windows automatically creates a 'System Volume

system it can handle, which would include the FAT16/FAT32 file systems
