I want debian as dual boot with my windows vista, Free'd up 50GB in my d drive. Plan to use 40 for debian install, 6GB for swap space
Have a 16GB USB drive
Downloaded http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
Downloaded DVD files of stable debian-7.0.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso ( debian-7.0.0-amd64-DVD-2.iso and 3)
After I choose HD install, unetbootin says place the ISO in the same place. but I have 3. do i need to merge them? if so any freeware to do that? can i do it with 7zip? when I extract with 7 zip there are classes between the 3 ISO files. Just over write? Options to merge (format etc for 7zip) ? Or I must use
I tried to keep the 3 files with the other unetbootin files but get an error msg Files I have on my USB

also i can only copy above files if i format my USB as NTFS
On FAT32 says too large to copy .iso
How do I get around that? My internet needs a login so cannot do net install
