Why don't you  follow  what explained here:
https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch04s03.html.en

It's a simple two command procedure:

# cp debian.iso /dev/sdX
# sync

As specified, this should work fine for most users. The other options are more 
complex, mainly for people with specialised needs.

Please notice that the image must be written to the whole-disk device and not 
a partition, e.g. /dev/sdb and not /dev/sdb1. This is also pointed out in the 
liked web page.
