So I made a custom boot-cdrom to boot an install on USB of Madbox 9.10.
More info on this distro: http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/topic/3384/madbox-liveusb-toram/
Mostly followed this tutorial from Pendrive Linux but also
copied initrd.gz from the already on USB installed cdimage (folder: /capser)
and changed some parameters like custom.seed instead of ubuntu.seed
How to Create a CD to Boot Ubuntu from USB
The following process will enable you to create a Boot CD that can be used to Boot Ubuntu 8.10 from a USB Flash drive on systems that do not natively support booting from USB.
copied initrd.gz from the already on USB installed cdimage (folder: /capser) and then
- Insert the Ubuntu 8.10 Live CD and restart your computer, booting from the CD
- Open a Terminal and type mkdir -p ubcd/boot/grub
- Type cp /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/stage2_eltorito ubcd/boot/grub
- Type gedit ubcd/boot/grub/menu.lst
- Add the following information to your menu.lst file and save it to ubcd/boot/grub
