At step 3 both Gparted and fdisk reported everything normal(both partition table(msdos) and filesystem(fat32) were the same as before writing to the flash drive). Success with unetbootin!

Starting with the release of Linux Mint 12 KDE RC, Linux Mint switched to Hybrid ISO images. This tutorial only covers Hybrid ISO images.
