If something is wrong with the USB stick itself, buy a new one... they aren't that expensive anyways

Ok, here's how I always get Linux and other OS's to boot off my USB. Get the normal CD image (.iso file), and use UNetBootin to copy everything to the USB and make it bootable. Remember to format your USB drive first.
