Re: [cwe-lug] Is it possible to setup Grub to boot from USB drive

[Ed Howland]

Certainly I can do that or from within FC. Just setting up a chroot once 
the USB drive is mounted. But, before I start that (laborious) process, 
I wanted to make sure there is a way to boot the machine from the USB. 
Trouble is I have no floppy, except for a USB floppy.

I may forgo this for now and just swap drives in my Laptop. Except, 
there seems to be no easy way to accomplish that either.

Guess I'll go another way or look into syslinux.

Any reason you can't use Knoppix to install a stage 1 Gentoo:
