I had a little trouble with dd for windows and ended up using a different
program (flashnul, google should turn up instructions for using it to write
a nightly image to USB stick)... and eventually just started doing it from
Linux as windows wouldn't let me write directly to the device and only to a
partition.

All the different nightly build formats are available at
http://haiku-files.org/

Anyboot, RAW, ISO, VMWare images (which work just fine with Virtualbox etc)
