I think what you want to do is here:

http://darkdust.net/writings/diskimagesminihowto

Seems to me that the RPi folks used this technique to create the images. 

Rick Thomas suggested a one-liner to create the img file that looks like it 
should work well.

Another suggestion....ask the kind folks at RPi. (They are almost as nice as 
the folks on the Debian list)
