Re: Booting from a USB HDD
I would strongly "guess" that you will not be able to "boot" from a USB device. The boot sequence is setup in the BIOS (F2 when you machine is starting). However, since the USB is not directly connected to IDE channel on the board it will not appear as a boot sequence option. The USB requires drivers to be loaded during the boot in order to work and therefore it cannot be the boot source.
