as Daniel, being the syslinux maintainer in Debian, already knows, syslinux >=3.72 supports some kind of hybrid images which can either be burnt on CD-ROM or raw-copied to a disk (USB stick, etc.); this is practically achieved by post-processing an ISO image using the bundled isohybrid script.
jup.. it's on my temporary todo since quite some time.. http://live.debian.net/gitweb?p=tmp.git;a=blob;f=live-helper.txt
I'm thinking of implementing this as an optional step done in the binary.sh script created and run by lh_binary_iso.
as said on irc some weeks ago, it should be an own binary image type, iso-hybrid, so that we offer to build 'plain' iso images (-b iso) and hybrid ones (-b iso-hybrid), which in turn needs first some modifications in lh_binary_iso to factor out the common stuff.
once iso-hyrbid is ready, it will be the default image type for squeeze and newer images.
