 Dear Maintainer, 
  
 On the web page https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/CreateUSBMedia it is 
 said that one can copy the debian.iso file directly to the media using: 
  
 sudo cp debian.iso "$TARGET_DEVICE" 
  
 However, "cp" reports the error:"cp: cannot create regular file '/dev/sdb': 
 No 
 medium found" 
  
 I searched around a bit and found that one should use the command "dd" 
 instead. 
  
 However, it seems like you should change this to a working solution. 
  
 Regards, 
 Thomas
