boot from cd, point to thumb drive

[Jim]

If I ever get a 2GB stick, i'll try it.    I tried the plop option.  I 
used the script that allows you to customize the image burned to disc.  
This saves me having to choose any of the available options.  I put in 
the cd, and the usb stick, boot boot the machine and I get the 
multisystem menu.  Thanks
