- <title>Preparing Files for USB Memory Stick Booting</title>
-
-<para>
-
-For preparing the USB stick you will need a system where GNU/Linux is
-already running and where USB is supported. You should ensure that the
-usb-storage kernel module is loaded (<userinput>modprobe
-usb-storage</userinput>) and try to find out which SCSI device the USB
-stick has been mapped to (in this example
-<filename>/dev/sda</filename> is used). To write to your stick, you
-will probably have to turn off its write protection switch.
-
-</para><para>
-
-Note, that the USB stick should be at least 128 MB in size (smaller
-setups are possible if you follow <xref linkend="usb-copy-flexible"/>).

-There is an all-in-one file <filename>hd-media/boot.img.gz</filename>
-which contains all the installer files (including the kernel) as well
-as <command>SYSLINUX</command> and its configuration file. You only
-have to extract it directly to your USB stick:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-# zcat boot.img.gz &gt; /dev/<replaceable>sda</replaceable>

-There is an all-in-one file <filename>hd-media/boot.img.gz</filename>
-which contains all the installer files (including the kernel) as well

-partition of type "Apple_Bootstrap" on your USB stick using
-<command>mac-fdisk</command>'s <userinput>C</userinput> command and

-Using this method will destroy anything already on the device. Make sure

-After that, mount the USB memory stick (<userinput>mount

-/mnt</userinput>), which will now have
-<phrase arch="i386">a FAT filesystem</phrase>
-<phrase arch="powerpc">an HFS filesystem</phrase>
-on it, and copy a Debian netinst or businesscard ISO image to it.
-Please note that the file name must end in <filename>.iso</filename>.
-Unmount the stick (<userinput>umount /mnt</userinput>) and you are done.

- <title>Adding an ISO image</title>
-<para>
-
-Now you should put any Debian ISO image (businesscard, netinst or even
-a full one) onto your stick (if it fits). The file name of such an
-image must end in <filename>.iso</filename>.
-
-</para><para>
-
-If you want to install over the network, without using an ISO image,
-you will of course skip the previous step. Moreover you will have to
-use the initial ramdisk from the <filename>netboot</filename>
-directory instead of the one from <filename>hd-media</filename>,
-because <filename>hd-media/initrd.gz</filename> does not have network
-support.

-When you are done, unmount the USB memory stick (<userinput>umount
