Which iso to download for bootable usb stick ?

#1 Post by Siegfried999 »

Hi everyone,

I'm new to Linux and I want to try Debian with bootable usb stick, but I don't know which iso to download. Is it netinst or xfce cd 1 I must download ?
With USB installer I must choose Debian Live or Netinst ? If I choose Debian Live, I don't see the iso files in my download folder. I'm really confused :(

Thanks
Bobby

You really can use any ISO image to make a bootable usb stick, but I have never heard of "usb installer" I don't know what that is.
Copy/paste :

If you just want to try Debian, the Debian Live image is what you need, the netinstall image, well , like it's name says, it is for installing Debian, but it is not a complete system.
I don't see the iso files in my download folder.
It would be just 1 file, I have no idea why it does not show in your download
folder, Did you down load it ? Did you have it set to download to that folder, ?
How did you try downloading ? Some operating systems and browsers do not work very well, maybe that is the problem.
I'm really confused :(
No problem , so am I.
