I want to install Debian directly onto my USB drive. Is there an easy way to do this directly without having to reboot to run the installer?

    Yes. Just partition the drive manually, install packages with debootstrap, bind-mount /proc, /sys and /dev, chroot into it and install a bootloader. If you don’t understand what I say, you have to run an installer, possibly in a VM.
