I've been able to boot off a usb device (provided the system was capeable of 
booting from a usb device) with MS-DOS before. Linux shouldn't be much 
different, just make the appropriot changes to the boot sector of the usb 
device [sorry, i can't provide much help in depth at the moment]  however, I 
know if you install grub into the MBR of the device after preparing your 
system accordingly (again, I'm skipping many details)  it should work.

Note: I haven't done this myself with linux yet, but I do *know* it's 
possible.

Subject: [BL] BL on a USB key?
Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2003 11:56:12 -0500

Hello all - I'm trying to get BL working on a bootable USB key.  Has this 
ever been done before or would anyone have any insights for me?

I've searched through the mailing list archives, but didn't find much.

Thanks!
-Erik
