Hi Sam,
can I still do it the old way, using the "dd" command ?:
dd if=<file> of=<device> bs=4M; sync

    * <file> is the name of the input image, e.g. "netinst.iso"
    * <device> is the device matching the USB flash drive, e.g.
/dev/sda, /dev/sdb. Be careful to make sure you have the right device
name, as this command is capable of writing over your hard disk just
as easily if you get the wrong one!
    * "bs=4M" tells dd to read/write in 4 megabyte chunks for better
performance; the default is 512 bytes, which will be much slower
    * The "sync" is to make sure that all the writes are flushed out
before the command returns
