I would like to run Debian off of a USB drive using my laptop.  Currently I 
run a dual boot system: Debian with Windows on the internal hard disk.

The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A15-S129 and will not boot to USB.  I can 
boot to CD.

Is there a way I can use the CD-ROM to boot the computer and transfer control 
so that I can run Debian from the USB drive?
