How do I create a bootable USB drive for Ubuntu?
I have downloaded the Ubuntu iso file and I know how to burn it to a DVD. How do I burn it to a bootable USB drive instead?

Addendum: If you want to install to a USB flash drive, that can in fact be done -- but it takes special, mystical jiggery-pokery to avoid boot time issues with grub and how it recognizes drives and passes that information to the kernel. It's not difficult, just tedious, and an already-running linux system is needed to make the necessary changes on the target USB flash drive.
