I finally figured out how to make a Debian USB installer image with
a size other than 256MB. This may seem obvious to some, but no one
suggested it when I asked, so here goes:
echo 'deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ etch main' >>/etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get -y install dpkg-dev
apt-get source debian-installer
cd debian-installer-20070308
dpkg-checkbuilddeps
apt-get install -y debhelper grep-dctrl bc debiandoc-sgml libbogl-dev
glibc-pic libslang2-pic \
libnewt-pic genext2fs mklibs mkisofs dosfstools syslinux tofrodos mtools
bf-utf-source
dpkg-checkbuilddeps
cd build
sed -i 's/244736/489472/;s/239/478/;s/256/512/' config/amd64/hd-media.cfg
make build_hd-media
zcat dest/hd-media/boot.img > /dev/sda
