that is a good approach (I mean, having LiveUSB-creator as part of the
base install) .

Like I said in a previous message, I solved it by using 'tuxboot'
which does the same without needed a ton of deps, just p7zip-plugins
and beesu to be run as root. It worked wonders, and I was able to burn
Clonezilla* from my F18 LiveCD.

Thanks to everyone who replied with their thoughts, opinions and suggestions. :)
