This is available in live-magic (again, I never tried it, so I don't know
whether it really works or not, but after choosing the livecd-type you are
creating, there's a screen with "ISO image for CD/DVD", "Image for USB or Hard
Disk", "Image for network boot"... so this is really what you're asking here)

Ciao,
