Yes I have. However, as I was installing from a Debian Lenny based
system. Most of these were not applicable to me. The only options
available to me were to either use unetbootin, or to use the
livecd-iso-to-disk.sh script.
When I click on the link, it downloads a file called yfRX867I.sh.part
and not livecd-iso-to-disk.sh
If I rename the downloaded file to livecd-iso-to-disk.sh and execute the
script as suggested in the instructions, the script is unable to run.
This only left the unetbootin option, which gave me the errors described
earlier.
It is quite possible, that unetbootin 372-1 cannot be used -- which is
what I suspect -- However, that is the only version available to me on
Lenny -- and trying to install the squeeze version shifts me over into
dependency hell!
Thanks for the thought.

Still produced the error
