(I do see that 256M Cruzer's can now be purchased for a mere 30 bucks,
but unfortunately between the new USB floppy drive for testing a
laptop with EMM386 VDS changes, the TASM upgrade, and the Red Cross
thing, my discretionary fund for FreeDOS is approximately 17 cents, at
least through early 2006.)
Do you have a Cruzer then? I've got a 1GB version, but BIOS probably
will handle it as harddisk. I've never tried to make it bootable, either
with FreeDOS initially, or with Syslinux. There are many Linux-on-USB
distributions, so I guess they'll have a tutorial for Syslinux or GRUB,
or maybe even FreeDOS.
WinImage 8.00 (and a few older versions) also claim support for bootable
USB media.
best step seems to be to follow guides with MSDOS first, then try with
FreeDOS, as some external tools might be specific to MSDOS (or its
bootsector)
