I know this is over a month since you asked the question, but I'm playing 
catchup with some lists I subscribe to. 

When I moved my installation to a USB stick, I just copies syslinux to it, 
copies isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg, and ran syslinux /dev/sda (or wherever 
the data was) 

Then you can add the "hostname=foo" options to the kernel line as you want.
