On your host machine, format usb stick with ext2 and flash image. If you are using source then you will have system.image and userdata.image in 'android-source/out/target/product/generic' after successful build. There is also ramdisk.img in case you want to use.
First check whether your target kernel has driver for usb stick and you can access stick ( after mount using respective device node ) on target. If this works then you can try steps I have mentioned in last mail.
