DVD Installer on USB...?

[Christopher A. Williams]

I love the speed of the USB installer from the Live CD...!

But I would also like to stop using so many DVDs for, well everything.
USB drives are much more convenient, portable, durable, and reusable.
My ideal scenario would be able to put the DVD installer ISO onto a
bootable USB stick as well - specifically for the portability USB drives
give over DVDs, and also because USB sticks are basically a lot faster
and easily re-used once I'm done with the install. I mean, do you use
the install DVD for anything else once you've done the install?

Again - this would not be a Live image. It would be the DVD installer
itself running from a USB drive for the specific purpose of doing
exactly what the DVD installer does now.

I've tried to figure out how to do this a couple of releases back, was
unsuccessful after about 30 minutes - OK, so I gave up pretty fast.. :)
- and went back to just burning the DVD. But I'm still interested in
having this as an option and I'd bet I'm not alone.

Anyone have a how-to/magic incantation to do this? Could we eventually
make this an option for Fedora installers too?

Cheers,

Chris
