Hi,

i added to  merge_debian_isos  the capability to burn the resulting
ISO 9660 filesystem directly to optical media and to write it directly
to storage device files. This removes the need for having substantial
free disk space beyond the capacity to store the original ISO images.

While burning to optical media is quite a harmless operation for the
normal user, writing to USB stick devices is not. Therefore
merge_debian_iso can cooperate with xorriso-dd-target, my offer for
safe copying of image files onto USB sticks on GNU/Linux.

I created
  https://wiki.debian.org/MergeDebianIsos
to describe installation, feeding, and usage of merge_debian_isos.
Review and testing are welcome.

(The same applies to the older
  https://wiki.debian.org/XorrisoDdTarget
)


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
