Debian USB installer

You need to put these file at the root of usb directory:
1) vmlinuz
2) initrd.gz
3) syslinux.cfg
4) xxxxx.iso   --> The iso which you want to install
Remember, do not use vmlinuz and initrd.gz in iso file here,
or the installng process can't read iso from your usb stick



vi syslinux.cfg



default vmlinuz
append initrd=initrd.gz ramdisk_size=12000 root=/dev/ram rw



syslinux /dev/sdx
ok, we finished all the procedure,now you can reboot your machine
