Do you want to put the Debian installer on the USB stick and be able to 
install a Debian system from it into another location, or install a 
Debian system on the USB stick ?

Downloading vmlinuz is not required. You can get it from the ISO image.

The initrd.gz included in Debian installer ISO images cannot read files 
from an ISO image, only from a plain drive or partition. This is why you 
need an initrd.gz for hd-media. Note that there may also be restrictions 
about the supported filesystem types containing the ISO image.

Things may be different with Debian live images.
