Thanks for the fresh insight! People who have followed the installation
instructions already know what an ISO image.
For example: https://tails.boum.org/install/debian/usb/.

But it might not be the case for everybody. For example, I gave Susan a
Tails USB stick which was already installed, she was not faced with this
terminology before but might still start Tails Installer to clone it for
a friend.

What about adding a (?) button (like we're doing in other place) after
"Use ISO image"? This button would open a dialog explaining what is an
ISO image and linking to https://tails.boum.org/install/download/ for
download.

I also thought about changing the label to "Use downloaded ISO image".

What do you think Susan?
