I frequently convert all of my builds from Fedora 14 to LiveUSB and they work fine for me.  Some machines do have trouble booting LiveUSB at all... and a few I've seen that typically boot just fine, decide to stop booting once the USB device gets bigger than a certain size.  For example, I've seen a few machines that work fine with 2GB USB drives but fail with 4GB.  Anyway, try your LiveUSB on a variety of machines and see what happens.  What size USB thumbdrive are you using?

TYL,
