Yup. Essentially:
dd if=/path/to/pidora.iso of=/dev/sdd bs=1M
Note the "of=/dev/sdd" (the ENTIRE disk), NOT "of=/dev/sdd1" (a
partition). You want to whack the entire MicroSD.
The steps I performed:
[bobg@box10 Downloads]$ unzip Pidora-2014-R3.zip
[root@box10 ~]# dd if=/home/bobg/Downloads/Pidora-2014-R3.img
of=/dev/sdd bs=1M
[root@box10 ~]# mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/test/
The result:
[root@box10 ~]# ll /mnt/test/
total 22808

That looks as though it might work but I need reassurance ...
Yup, that's about right. The dd command created at least one partition
and that's the contents of it. It also wrote a boot loader into the MBR
of the SD card. I think you're pretty much there. Boot that SD on your
RPi and you should be good to go.
