This is a great little app, it has both windows and Linux versions.

Its entire purpose is to put an ISO or Linux livecd onto USB

I'm using the windows client to make USB boot SD cards and
thumb-drives with much amusement.

From the top of the page so you get a summary

Packages: Ubuntu Debian Fedora Suse Arch Gentoo More

Introduction

UNetbootin allows you to create bootable Live USB drives for a variety
of Linux distributions from Windows or Linux, without requiring you to
burn a CD. You can either let it download one of the many
distributions supported out-of-the-box for you, or supply your own
Linux .iso file if you've already downloaded one or your preferred
distribution isn't on the list.

Requirements

Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7, or Linux. If you are having trouble
with the Linux version, try the Windows version, it usually works
better.
A broadband internet connection to download the distribution's .iso
file (unless you're using pre-downloaded files)

Features

UNetbootin can create a bootable Live USB drive, or it can make a
"frugal install" on your local hard disk if you don't have a USB
drive. It can load distributions by automatically downloading their
ISO (CD image) files, or by using existing ISO files, floppy/hard disk
images, or kernel/initrd files, for installing other distributions.

rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
