I am not looking to install on a flashdrive only disks. I am selling ubuntu to people and am trying to give them both to choose from. (just in case they cant use 64 or they need 64 for some reason)

I have posted the pendrive link above. There are also these scripts.
These are scripts to install many ISOs. Some that will not loopmount by installing a kernel and boot image.

But I just do it manually. I install grub to flash drive and copy ISO onto flash drive in a /iso folder.

Install to a flash drive is really the same as an install to a second hard drive.

This will boot an ISO from a hard drive.
