You can boot Linux from anything that your BIOS supports.  The talk 
about Live CDs booting from CD is just a specific sub-set of Linux that 
does not even require you to have a hard drive.  These Live CDs are 
useful to demonstrate Linux, or to test Linux, or to recover data from a 
non-bootable Windows system.   They aren't really typical of an 
installed Linux system (though many of them *are* isntallable to the 
hard drive).
