here's a blurb about anyboot that needs to go somewhere :

To note, some disc burning software may try to be "clever" and won't
burn the image properly.
Burning with K3b as a CD image (even without renaming it to *.iso)
produces a usable CD here.
K3b, CDRecord and Burn 2.4.1u are reported to burn the anyboot image properly,
without even needing to rename the file to *.iso.

As for dd'ing to a usb stick or hard disk, i'm not sure if the anyboot
needs to be written directly to the device or if it can be written to
a partition on the device.
