Not that you also might try it vice versa *if* ext4 instead of
fat32 fares well with you there: dd the iso onto the flashdrive,
boot it once with sessions mode (so the rest of the space gets
partitioned and formatted to be used as rw slice), and write
what else you need there.

The corresponding wiki page is http://altlinux.org/propagator
(in Russian); should be something like:

automatic=method:disk,label:MYLABEL,directory:/

Feel free to add the hint to http://en.altlinux.org/rescue
discussion page if that helps :-)
