I haven't used livecd-iso-to-disk in a long time. However, it refuses
to even try:

The media check is complete, the result is: PASS.
It is OK to use this media.
USB filesystem must be vfat or ext[23]
Cleaning up to exit...

Except that I know for certain that the filesystem on the flash drive
is vfat. I formatted it just before attempting to write the live
image. When it's mounted (not while livecd-iso-to-disk is running)
mount tells me it's vfat.

Oh well. Thanks everybody for the replies. It would have been nice if
the livecd/usb had just worked, but I don't really have the time to
dink with this. I'll probably just try F14 or else wait for F16 on
this laptop. Such is Fedora...
