How to Create Linux USB Flashdisk Boot in Windows from ISO Image

Actually i want to share what is the advantage of creating boot-able USB flasdisk, there are:
  1. no need cd/dvd  room (because we use USB)
  2. faster than boot from cd
  3. more durable (there is no cyclic redundancy error)
  4. etc. (hehehe)
first of all, you have to download unetbootin-linux from here. then just run it from windows as administrator. this software has compatibility with windows xp, vista and win7. the step to create bootable flashdisk are:
  1. set the type of linux distro and its version.
  2. checklist Disk image and choose iso image file.
  3. choose the drive where the USB flasdisk mounted.
  4. click ok then see that your USB has turn into boot-able linux live cd.
  5. restart your PC then set boot setting to USB drive.
  6. enjoy it!

ps: i've used this way and now i run Ubuntu 10.04 lucid 64bit.
