Can you save a boot to USB?

patch · 2003-07-26 14:22:45

Hi guys.... I'm just wondering has anybody dumped a Ghost boot disk to a usb device?.......and did you manage to get your machine to boot from the USB? Maybe it's not possible, sure would be handy though..... Running p3 machines, 98me.

That's what I'm hoping. Timeout told me today he reckons the newer pc's do. I'm hoping it's possible. In a net cafe, it would make putting back images that bit handier.
