unetbootin is never supported for writing Fedora images; any problems
you have with it, really, report to unetbootin.

Writing Fedora lives to USB with dd or livecd-iso-to-disk (or
livecd-creator) is supported. Writing DVD/boot.iso to USB, with either
method, is...somewhat less supported, and may sometimes require special
configuration.

When reporting issues like this it's really important to note if you're
using a USB stick, and if so, what you used to write it, and what image
you actually wrote - live, DVD or boot.iso.
