This will not work, i fear, because the ISO is not bootable via an
isohybrid capable ISOLINUX boot image.

(This statement from blog/iso2usb is plain wrong:
 "The isohybrid tool in the syslinux package will convert ISO images
  into a USB flash drive compatible format"
isohybrid writes an MBR and partition tables into the System Area
of the ISO, so that boot firmware can find the boot loader if the ISO
is presented on HDD. The ISO 9660 filesystem does not get converted.)


Have a nice day :)
