I suppose since all that is installed on
the /dev/sdb1 LIVE partition is
LiveOS - 130.4 MB
syslinux - 29.4 MB
Properties: 159.9 MB used
5.2 GB free
Filesystem type:msdos
the /dev/sdb2 LIVE-REPO contains a 2.5 GB .iso file.
Properties: 2.5 GB used
168.9 MB free
Filesystem type:msdos
It could be much smaller.
Looks like a 4 GB USB should work well for this.
I did not use the graphical liveusb-creator to build this installer DVD
USB however.

1-)needed an 8GB USB formatted GPT format with /dev/sdb1 formatted fat

2-)only 4GB was formatted label:LIVE and 4GB was left unformatted
3-)a second partition was created by anaconda labeled LIVE-REPO (with
Fedora 17 Beta-x86-64-DVD.iso inside)

Another issue with 8GB USB sticks is that liveusb-creator won't let you
use their full capacity:
