We're working on a new version that should be posted today.  There is a
pending patch [1] about fixing an issue with using dd for creating a usb
stick.  I'm not familiar with unetbootin, but i expect it's a similar
problem. the livecd-iso-to-disk utility (from livecd-tools)can be used
to create the usb stick on a linux system.  liveusb-creator could work
as well.
