If you have to resort to windows Rufus or YUMI are great for this sort of
thing.

To make a bootable USB I seem to remember following these instructions
download CD bootable iso
isohybrid downloaded.iso
dd if=downloaded.iso of=/dev/sd[x]
isohybrid is part of the syslinux suite
As some people previously mentioned some bootable CDs, but not all, are
also hybrid CDs, these don't need the isohybrid command. In the dim and
distant past Porteus wasn't a hybrid CD maybe still isn't so needed the
isohybrid command to make the USB stick bootable.
Porteus was and probably will always remain by bootable USB stick of
choice, it's so small and fast.

As you say, not all are hybrids.
The reason I wanted to have UBCD was to use it to re-config grub as I
have replaced XP with win 7 (for specific programs I need for domestic
equipment S/W).
I have now installed Windows and changed to Grub bootloader using a
LiveDVD, and have decided not to run a stick creator from Linux.
I did try unetbootin, it complained I had to run as root, but then just
started with a blank window!
At my age, life is too short to spend more time just on a point of
principle of not using only using Linux!
