I have been doing some testing - and for me the dd method did not work
for the DVD iso for F14 beta.
I have reported a BZ using livecd-iso-to-disk as working to make a
usable, bootable usbkey for the DVD install iso, but the documentation
needs changing in some important ways:

I have only been testing the DVD install iso and not live isos - but
it would be better in my mind if there were two separate sections for
usbkey preparation - one for live usbkeys and one for a bootable
usbkey for installing the larger more complete DVD iso.
I hope this helps - and I hope there is still time to make the
necessary changes before f14 GA
I've rewritten the whole section for F14; I'll have a draft up in the
next few days
Cheers
