For Debian you can use Debian Live (1) (which is currently undergoing
transformation) to build regular live images or iso-hybrid images. With
Debian Live I recommend actually installing it (live-build) onto your
machine and building the live images on your own machines. The build
service is going to be shut down (probably today or tomorrow). I,
personally, use Debian Live to build my iso-hybrid images the only issue is
it doesn't, yet, work with UEFI but that is being worked on as we speak.
You could also use Refracta (2). I've never used it so I can't comment on
its usefulness.

Hi Tim!
This might be a pointer to the right direction (but I never used it):

To the
hardworking Devs and ISO-builders,
Please, that's pretty please with sugar on top, can we have
hybrid .ISOs for the expected new batch of live CDs/DVDs with TDE
R14.0.2?? My reasons for asking ....
1. Many modern PCs and most laptop/netbooks do not have an optical
drive.
2. I know there are utilities for writing an ISO to a USB-stick but
they are not particularly user-friendly. eg. unetbootin is a total
PITA. Besides a simple "sudo dd if=path-to-hybrid of=/dev/usb-stick"
is trivial and works as expected.
3. Boot and run from a USB-stick is much faster than any CD/DVD so
demonstrating to potential new adopters is a better experience.
Thanks in antic,
Glen
Do you have a link to how to build the hybrid images (from the command
line is preferred)? I haven't looked into that technology as I tend to
build live USB images with unetbootin.
Thanks!
