The process for creating the USBZIP format usb key images is tedious, so I threw
a script together. I suspect there might be demand for an integrated tool to do
this for the more onerous of the image making processes.
1) Any feedback on this particular script?
2) Should this go to scripts/contrib?
3) Would an image burning tool (ala unetbootin) be of interest to
others?

function usage {
echo "Usage: $(basename $0) IMAGE DEVICE"
}
function check_device {
if [ ! -b "$1" ] || [ ! -w "$1" ]; then
echo "Error opening device '$1'."
echo "Device should be a writable block device."
exit 1
fi
}
if [ $# -ne 2 ]; then
usage
exit 1

DEV=$2
if [ ! -f "$IMAGE" ]; then
echo "Image '$IMAGE' does not exist."
