this is an excellent

this is an excellent tutorial, i've managed to get myself a bootable usb stick. yay.

only bad thing is: you actually need a mainboard wich allows you to boot from usb sticks. as i wanted to use this on older hdd-less pcs, this doesnt work anymore.

any idea on howto start the system from an usb stick through a bootfloppy ?
