Hello! And that's what RUNT Linux does. It can be installed on any device that's not normally thought of as being bootable from USB. Such as a moderately sized HD stuck into a holder, and booted that way. Did you visit his pages to see how he accomplished it?
Thanks for helping me. But this isn`t exactly what I mean. It`s very interesting anyway.
It seams the boot floppy disk can start up any standard linux distro. It`s like grub booting any distro... Like...
title Ubuntu 7.10, kernel 2.6.22-14-generic root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-14-genericBut I am talking about chain booting. Hand over control to another bootloader who resident in mbr. Like booting windows or any other os.
