I don't know the exact commands, but you should be able to use dd in the
terminal to make bootable sticks, which is meant to be, and should be
reasonably easy to use. I think its a few commands that have to be right
for that to work though. Really I think the graphical programs do what the
commands do, but graphically instead.

Why not find a hybrid image and use dd to copy the iso to the stick?

Hi

I would use easy2boot. It has instructions on how to create the disk on
linux and any special instructions need to put UBCD on the usb stick.

I created an easy2boot stick the other day and it is utter genius and
magic. Although I did create the stick with windows, not linux.
