Only to inform that I've just released the version 1.2 of makebootfat. 

makebootfat is a GPL command line utility able to create bootable USB
disks for Linux and Windows using the FAT filesystem and syslinux.

As far I know it's the most advanced tool available able to make
bootable USB disks.
It's able to autodetect/partition/format/populate the USB disk in a
single step without any user interaction. It's also able to create
disk images which are compatibles with all the three standards
USB-FDD, USB-HDD and USB-ZIP at the same time.

This is the manpage:

This is the download page:
http://advancemame.sourceforge.net/cd-download.html

To see an example of distribution using makebootfat you can download
AdvanceCD in the same download page.
