The Bering-uClibc team has scripts that do something like that for Floppy
and ISO images and also collect the packages from CVS, would be great if
the same method would also work for USB.
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/leaf/src/bering-uclibc/buildtool/tools/

The createimage.sh and prepareimagefiles.sh take care of that.

I think something like 64Mbyte should do, it's more than enough for all
packages.
