this has worked for me, using a Windows machine to prep the USB stick

and this tool was even easier to use, you can setup the USB stick on
either a windows or linux box.

I nearly always use the CentOS 6 MINIMAL install, its hardly bigger than
the NETINSTALL, and less hassle to setup. once its up and running, I
yum install anything else I need. I prefer minimal installs to very
comprehensive ones, yum updates are much faster when you aren't updating
tons of packages you'll never use.
