Can anyone direct me to some assistance in getting a distribution installer (CD distribution) to recognize the USB memory key at boot time, so that it can be used as /boot? Also, does the USB key need to be initialized as bootable before beginning the Linux installation?
Does the BIOS allow booting from a USB device? If not, it's not going to work. I suppose you could boot off of a floppy, and redirect to either the USB or HD.
