 +====== How to install debian squeeze from usb key ? ======
 +
 +Plug the usb key in order to find the device location:
 +<code bash>df -k
 +...
 +/dev/sdb                244476    217968     26508  90% /media/xxx
 +</code>
 +It shows that /dev/sdb is my usb key. Then unmount it
 +<code bash>sudo umount /dev/sdb</code>
 +Download these two files:
 +<code bash>
 +cd /tmp/
 +wget http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/hd-media/boot.img.gz
 +wget http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso
 +</code>
 +
 +Copy the first on the stick (it has to be umounted):
 +<code bash>
 +zcat boot.img.gz > /dev/sdb
 +</code>
 +Then mount the stick and copy ''debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso'' on it:
 +<code bash>
 +sudo mount /dev/sdb /mnt/
 +sudo cp /tmp/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso /mnt/
 +sudo umount /mnt/
 +</code>
 +
 +The usb key is now ready. Plug it on the computer to install, select in the bios usb for first boot device and start the debian squeeze installation.
