livecd-iso-to-disk (from livecd-tools) might be a good starting point.

Flags to pay special attention to (when reading the man page and/or 
script source) include --multi and --livedir.

You'll probably have to edit some syslinux / extlinux config, but it 
shouldn't be too difficult. Not exactly straightforward, but the best I 
could find (wanted to sample XCFE/KDE/GNOME3/LXDE versions of fedora).

Might need a more recent version than what's available in SL (dunno when 
the multi-stuff got added), and unless you're running a DE on SL, you 
probably don't want to install it from the sl repo (dependencies 
apparently include firstboot, among others...). Should be possible to 
figure out dependencies for just that tool and get the script from the 
git repo on fedorahosted.org (or something).
