It is mentioned on the web page that the image could be written on USB

ISO 9660 CD image does not boot if simply written on memory stick with
dd, is there pre-built bootable filesystem image for USB memory sticks
too?
This is a hybrid image that boots both from a USB stick as well as when
burned on a CD. Very useful :-)

What, how does that work? :-)  Didn't work for me.


we have found 3 caveats so far

1) If your USB stick is too small it is a problem
   ("too small" is possible due to the difference between the marketing megabyte
    and the engineering megabyte ;-)
2) The distribution on which you did the "dd" on automounts the fs that is 
still being
   written out and as part of that automount, it corrupts it
3) Writing to /dev/sdb1 rather than /dev/sdb (assuming sdb is the usb device)

if you have none of these please provide more details of "didn't work" ...
