Hi All:

We've had somewhat competing bugs (links below) filed around Unetbootin.

Originally we referenced Unetbootin, and mentioned that we didn't ship
it in Fedora, which is now incorrect, and the cause of the the first
bug that was filed.

Here was original:
UNetbootin is a free and open-source graphical tool that can create
live USB media from live image files on computers that use a wide
range of different Linux distributions. The Fedora Project does not
distribute UNetbootin — it is available from
http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/. Refer to that website for a
complete description of the tool and instructions on how to use it.

Here is the current paragraph:
UNetbootin is a free and open-source graphical tool that can create
live USB media from live image files on computers that use a wide
range of different Linux distributions. Refer to the documentation
provided with UNetbootin for more information on how to use it.

Ricky has submitted a patch that essentially strips mention of
Unetbootin from the install guide.

Our current documentation is pretty sparse with regards to Unetbootin.

Sooooo, how do we want to handle Unetbootin in our documentation.
