	It may turn out to be less of a headache to make it a
duel-boot system.  One boot would be the latest debian console
and the other would be Debian Wheezy

If the system on the USB drive is GNU/Linux, you just need to put /booton the internal drive so that GRUB can load them.

as I have some PIC
microcontroller development tools that don't make in today's
world.


Did you consider chroot instead of multiboot ?
