Overwriting the MBR is the whole point of getting a bootable USB device
when dd'ing or cat'ing an isohybrid to a USB stick. Any formatting which
is done beforehand will be completely undone by the writing process.

You have the opportunity to learn how to from posts in this thread. :)

UNetbootin might be a fine progam but using it to write an isohybrid to
a USB device is using yesterday's technology.
