I think you'd need to use the "isohybrid" command that's included in the syslinux package.
BING! BING! BING! We have a winner! Thanks for that info, it makes the USB stick bootable. This will make kickstart installations so much easier, especially for systems that don???t have a CD-ROM (we used to have to scrounge for an external CD/DVD player every time).
It would be interesting to see a comparison of fdisk -l for USB treated without and with isohybrid. I previously found that USB drives would not boot if the boot partition doesn't start on block 1; most tools, including fdisk and gparted, seem to put the start of the partition on much higher blocks when used on USB drives.
