You have to burn the iso to the usb stick using cd creator or what ever you have for the purpose, similar to how one creates a cd or dvd, not copy it. I do this frequently and once the iso is on the stick it doesn't seem to matter what else is on it the iso still works( for me anyway). I have a2 gig stick that I've used this way for years.

     Hello,

I downloaded Fedora 19 Live CD and copied it to a USB flash drive via dd. When I try to boot from it on a Lenovo Thinkpad T430s, I do get a screen that says that Fedora Live CD is going to load, but then it fails. The first error message I see is:

  kernel: SQUASHFS error: unable to read id index table

  Then, some lines later, I get several lines that say:

  dracut-mount[361]: mount: unknown filesystem type 'DM_snapshot_cow'

  and then:

  dracut-mount[361]: Warning: Can't mount root file system

  And then I seem to be in a "dracut emergency shell"

  Any ideas? Thanks!

     Best,
     Oliver

if you have another FC box try following and user to create live USB-stick

yum install -y liveusb-creator



Warm Regards
