I was reading the install instructions for Fedora 11 on the Wiki and
ran into an error.

USB pen drive
If you cannot boot from the DVD/CD-ROM drive, but you can boot
using a USB device, such as a USB pen drive, the following
alternative boot method is available:
To boot using a USB pen drive, use the dd command to copy the
diskboot.img image file from the /images/ directory on the DVD or
CD-ROM #1. For example:
dd if=diskboot.img of=/dev/sda
Your BIOS must support booting from a USB device in order for
this boot method to work.
The problem is that the file diskboot.img isn't there. (It wasn't in
Fedora 10 either.) The README in the /images/ directory talks about
it as well.
