I have done that. Here's basically what I did.
#!/bin/sh
ISO=/home/ftp/pub/install/install-amd64-minimal-20081213.iso
mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/sdc1
dd if=/usr/share/syslinux/mbr.bin of=/dev/sdc || exit
mount -o loop,ro -t iso9660 $ISO /mnt/iso || exit
mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt/media1 || exit
cp -r /mnt/iso/* /mnt/media1 || exit
sync
mv /mnt/media1/isolinux/* /mnt/media1
mv /mnt/media1/isolinux.cfg /mnt/media1/syslinux.cfg
rm -rf /mnt/media1/isolinux*
mv /mnt/media1/memtest86 /mnt/media1/memtest
umount /mnt/iso
#vim /mnt/media1/syslinux.cfg
sed -i -e "s:cdroot:cdroot slowusb:" \
-e "s:kernel memtest86:kernel memtest:" /mnt/media1/syslinux.cfg
umount /mnt/media1
syslinux /dev/sdc1
