True - dd syntax is a bit strange.  The specific device will vary
depending on what type of memory stick you are using, udev configuration
if you are on FC3, and what else you have on USB.

For my FC2 laptop :-(won't run FC3), with a USB hard disk on /dev/sda1,
and a Memorex giant-floppy-style memory stick, the command would be:

# dd if=diskboot.img of=/dev/sdb

Untested.  Haven't wanted to mess with my memory stick and haven't had
the need to do so.
