Write a bootable ISO to USB Flash Drive

http://sourceforge.net/projects/unetbootin/

This is a great find if you need it. The scenario is you have an ISO (or a CD/DVD that you can rip to an ISO) for Linux or Windows or some kind of utility, for instance an OEM rescue disk, something you need to boot from to use it. But you want to put it on a USB flash drive instead of a CD/DVD, say because you have a netbook without such a drive. This free open source utility puts the ISO files on the USB thumb drive and makes it bootable.
