UnetBootIn-Update

UnetBootIn-Update
I was installing Debian on this computer today.
I got a warning in the installing script (not use toUnetbootin) since the USB Stick was made using UnetBootin.
It (installation) went on smoothly without a hitch. 
UnetBootIn is a very small Linux utility and it needs additional plugin or libraries to function.
I used AVLinux Live session and used its Unetbootin.
Very handy Ghaphic interface.
Unlike old days it installs (overwrite previous installation in USB) only one iso- squashfs file (not multiples).
Only French Utility MultSystem allows one to have many iso distributions in a USB stick.
But the squashfs file might not have all the utilities the iso DVD may have.
It may be safer to use a DVD, instead.
DVD Rom makes a hum and I prefer quiet installation with a USB stick.
As far as I know only UnetBootIn support thisfunction,
Nothing ele.
Please do not destroy its functionality by giving wrong information.
If one tries (I had that difficulty and I have voiced my concern, elsewhere thinking it does not support 64 bit computers) the raw UnetBotin without the plug in one may fail.
The bottom line is if one has a distribition (AVLinux is an example) that supports unetbootin use that distribution.
I hope many of the other Linux distributions would include it in its packages,
Plase do not distroy its functionality.
