Problem

I don't get it. Why is it so complicated to create a bootable usb from a disc image? Disc images have boot sectors, so why can't you just write the raw LBA values from an image directly to a USB and be done? I haven't see any tool for Windows that lets me do this.

Low Risk

Ok I see the problem. The LBA sizes are different on USB and CD-ROM drives. 512 vs 2048. So a boot sector designed for a CD won't run on a USB drive.
