So, I read some offhand notes on the Web about the ISOs being "hybrid"

I haven't been able to figure out how to use them, though; the only
obvious thing to try given the above URL, dd, didn't produce a bootable
image.

note that the image needs to be written to the device itself, not to a partition, so e.g. 'dd if=foo.iso of=/dev/sda' (if sda is your usb stick).

Maybe I'm supposed to use syslinux to make it bootable; haven't
had time to try this yet.

no, the images are fully prepared already.
