More about usb boot



Where is this posted on the wiki?

Also, have you or anyone else had success booting from usb?

I don't think the modules needed for most usb devices are loaded...

A modprobe for these modules is prob required to properly find the rootfs on
the device.

perhaps a "fromusb" bootoption?
