At last, I think I have all the pieces.

Installing Debian from an USB memory stick (USB key)

To create a bootable USB memory stick, you can use the "mbr" package from debian (to write an MBR to the stick itself), and then syslinux (to write a boot loader to the first partition on the stick).

On the test stick that I have, the first partition is offset by 16kb from the start of the stick.
