I do all of my OS installations with USB sticks except installations
with MacBook which only accepts Mac OS X to be on USB stick.

The method which I am using to create the USB is
1. isohybrid Fedora.iso
2. dd if=Fedora.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1024M

The step 1 doesn't require root. isohybrid is in package syslinux.
Step 2 requires root.
