You are wasting your time as that .iso is not going to work for at least 2 reasons....
1) You can't boot an PI from a .iso image
2) It will have been built for and Intel/AMD architecture cpu not an ARM cpu as used on the PI.

You should note that using GNOME 3 on Raspberry Pi will be a pain. 2 GiB of ram is the absolute minimum.

This is an older post, but the first one that appears in regards to running Gnome 3 on the Raspberry Pi. Gnome 3 is pretty big and quite slow on the Pi 3. If you are intent on running it, the best way I have found is to use the new Fedora 25 ARM image. It comes with Gnome 3 as the default desktop and has a few other newer desktop environments such as Cinnamon.

As of Dec 11, Fedora 25 is still in beta and the on-board WiFi doesn't work, but oddly the RTL8188EU USB WiFi does work, odd since it doesnt work on other Distributions with the Pi 3.
