No way. If your BIOS cannot start GRUB, what do you think GRUB can do?

Summary:  Boot from USB

Original Submission:  On old pc there is no "boot from usb" entry in the BIOS. 
And on new systems you need to configure it in the BIOS, but thats a security 
risk (everbody can then boot a usb-device). An entry in grub could be 
password-protected.
