I dd cloned the iso to /dev/sdf clobbering the partition table I think.

Finally, just now tracked down what I had done next:

I started fdisk, telling it to not delete my iso:
sudo fdisk --wipe=never --wipe-partitions=never /dev/sdf

then entered like t c w

finally I formatted the new partition
sudo mkfs.vfat -F 32 -n RECOVERY /dev/sdf3

I use xfce4 and thunar file manager, only the iso shows up in thunar when I plug in the usb drive. I assume it is because my iso image literally tells whatever is in charge of auto-mounting, that the end of the iso is the end of the disk.
