I have downloaded the debian-live-7.8.0-i386-gnome-desktop.iso from torrent from the link from debian download listings at debian.org.
and I put it on a 8gb flash drive formated with gparted to a bootable fat32 partition and is listed as being /dev/sdc
I installed the iso to the drive uss dd using the following code
Code: Select all
sudo dd if=debian-live-7.8.0-i386-gnome-desktop.iso of=/dev/sdc bs=4M; sync
also when I click the graphical installer or the installer modes from the grub i get a background image with some sort of artifiacts in the top inchish of the screen then everything but the mouse freezes.
But when I go into one of the live modes and click the installer in their it opens just fine but when it starts transfering files it says that it couldn't transfer files from the cd after all the language and localization screens at the beginning.
I did find a misc page on the internet involving a cruchbang with the same problem http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=19316
I went to the folder in the usb drive in question and it looks like since that was origianally post something has changed or it could have been a crunchbang format.
So basiclly I am asking did I do a step wrong should I try a different way of instillation, or do I have a currupted image? also I am unable to use disk media due to the type of drives and disks I have access to.
