I need to use a USB stick for installing Fedora 17 on a system and
LiveUSB Creator is the program for creating a bootable Live USB

to create a Live USB stick using this program. However, if the sole
purpose is installation, can we use the installation CD or DVD ISO
images for creating the USB installation media ?
Thanks,

Well, you could just dd the installation ISO to the usb stick,
and then boot from the USB and install onto hard drive.
I have already done that - with an interesting side effect.
The system kept thinking that my USB stick was a cdrom
and would not let me erase it (i.e. overwrite it).
Perhaps I had done something wrong, I do not remember
exactly what.
Good luck.
