I have a laptop which allows for booting from USB sticks but not from internal SD card reader.
Is it possible to install Debian on SD card with /boot catalog and bootloader on USB stick in such a way that it would work? I mean: boot Debian from USB stick, but the whole system will be installed and will run from SD card inserted in internal SD card reader?
I've found such solution for Ubuntu (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromSD) and I'm wondering if it will work for Debian.
