Hello Bill,

AFAIK you cannot boot a CDROM-image from a pendrive. However you might
have a look at images/README:

"The diskboot.img file is a VFAT filesystem image that can be written
to a USB pendrive or other bootable media larger than a floppy.  
Note that booting via USB is dependent on your BIOS supporting this.
It should be written to the device using dd."

Regards,
Andreas Rogge
