The rant was about the documentation, but the thread has morphed into a
discussion of how to write a bootable usb stick, so your post fits in
nicely.  In my case I was not moving from one distribution to another
(remaining in Ubuntu), so for me the universality of Unetbootin that you
mention was not needed.  However, John may find it useful, as he is a
distribution explorer.
