I think that it will be enough to add one proper way to move out ISO to USB. I think that next way is most right:

# dd if=/way/to/your/ISO of=/way/to/your/USB/stick

For example, assume that you have ISO laying at /home/user/fuel-isos/fuel-6.1-248-2015-03-30_03-08-59.iso.
Also assume that you have your USB stick accessible at /dev/sdc.
Then you should write ISO to USB by next command:

# dd if=/home/user/fuel-isos/fuel-6.1-248-2015-03-30_03-08-59.iso of=/dev/sdc

Be aware of 2 facts:
1. All data that you had on your flash drive before moving ISO to it, will be lost.
2. You must write ISO to flash drive itself, not to some partitions of it. For example, if you have flash drive /dev/sdc that was partitioning to /dev/sdc1 and /dev/sdc2, you MUST write ISO to /dev/sdc itself (NOT to sdc1 or sdc2). After moving your partitions will be lost.
