I have Fedora 21 Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-23-10.iso I have Ubuntu 12 I have 2 gb formatted fat 32 I open Startup Disk Creator I select Fedora image, remains grayed out I select Ubuntu image, ok.

Is this only for Ubuntu images. I have tried other methods on Fedora site- no go.

Any insight, links, help, appriciated

I'm happy when Startup Disk Creator can use the next release Ubuntu iso -- it's pretty sensitive. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2291946&highlight=startup+disk+creator

Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator is only for Ubuntu family distros. For Fedora, use the direct write methods they suggest at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB You can use Gnome Disk Utility (a.k.a. "Disks") to do the Fedora job. See the "Linux (GNOME) quick start (direct write)" section at above link. Ubuntu can be done this way too. Also for Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/mkusb

mkusb works also in Fedora, but you have to install it from phillw.net
