After many tries I get:

And somehow I twice installed debian on my eee...with USB stick. I redone every step I took a month ago with no luck.

HDiso? Where can i get it? Besides unebootin?

My bad. The iso is a standard iso. It is the boot.img that must be hd-media from the site you pointed to.

UPDATE:
Here's what I just did, let me know if it's wrong.


$ sudo chmod 777 /dev/sdb
$ sudo zcat boot.img.gz > /dev/sdb
$ sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /media/iso
$ sudo cp debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso /media/iso


EDIT: Yea this didn't work either. I'm going to be really bummed out if I'm stuck with ubuntu. =(
EDIT2: BTW, the error I'm getting when I boot to USB is: "Boot error" That's it.

I used a similar method:

Code:

sudo chmod 666 /dev/sdc
zcat boot.img.gz > /dev/sdc
mount /dev/sdc /mnt
sudo cp debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso /mnt/
umount /mnt

I tried it also with "sdc1" instead od "sdc", but none way was successful: all I get is a blinking cursor in the beginning of boot. I use eeepc 901.

Any hints?
