If you prefer to use USB as a source for installation, then you just need 
to copy the ISO onto the USB device, e.g. using dd:
dd if=Qubes-R2-rc2-x86_64-DVD.iso of=/dev/sdX 


Extracted from https://wiki.qubes-os.org/wiki/InstallationGuideR2rc2

Could be added some advice in the wiki to check the md5 sum to avoid 
writting errors in the CD/DVD/USB?

The dd is very easy if you want to use a USB pendrive as install media, if 
done properly.

<br>Hello Chris,

<br>I'm not finding the statement in the documentation, that you should
