hm...

you'll have to tell me how it works out once you have it up and running...

As far as software to make a bootable usb..
hm...
I tend to use win7 for doing such things..
(I know it seems a bit odd...but when burning usb sticks with bootable linux distros...I tend to use win7...the gui software is simple to complex depending on the need...and for the most part such win software is thoughtlessly easy....so saying...)
the best piece of software I have found that is flexible and actually "looks at" the distro and flexes compatibility to cater to the distro in question...so the burning process goes well....
is RUFUS ...
I have found rufus adapts to whatever new or outdated or old distro by grabbing whatever bits it needs at the time to accommodate the distro in question.
I haven't ever had a prob with rufus ....unlike some of the other alternatives...
However ...I haven't tried Meego...with rufus.
That would be a new one for me...so I couldn't say whether it would work or not...
But rufus is your best bet with windows.
Forgot to mention...
Rufus is constantly being updated, fixed and new versions come out frequently,....one of the better pieces of windows software out there.
