"Creating a Bootable USB Device" procedure is using an obsolete command

[gpoppino]

Introduction

Right now it is not possible to create a bootable USB device image following the current public documentation of SUSE Manager 5.0 at Deploy Terminals with a Removable USB Device

Documentation Update Required

The command used for the creation of bootable USB device to deploy a terminal is outdated for SUSE Manager 5.0.

What does the documentation say now?

The outdated command is salt-call image_sync_usb.create <usb image name> <size in MB>

What change is required?

The previous command should be replaced for cobbler buildiso --iso /root/myiso.iso --profiles $orgid-$branchname --distro $orgid-$imagename-$version-$release where profiles names can be obtained with cobbler profile list and distros with cobbler distro list.

Note: in future versions the distro will not be required anymore.
