Failed booting from USB stick

Hi

I just downloaded Lucid Beta 2 and transferred it to a USB stick using 
unetbootin after usb-creator-kde/gtk both failed miserably. I rebooted and 
selected "Boot from USB drive" (or whatever it's called) from the built-in 
boot menu. The system started to boot but then failed saying something like 
"Unable to find kernel image 'linux'". My knowledge of the boot system is a bit 
rusty but isn't the kernel called vmlinuz?
Is this an error in the ISO image or did unetbootin fail to transfer the files 
correctly? Or perhaps an error 40 ;-)
