Linux from an external HD - Dutch-Lin - 2007-01-04
Hey peepz!
Is it possible to boot linux from an external HD, even if the PC I'm using doesn't support booting from USB devices?
If so, how is it done?

Would it in theory be possible to burn GRUB to a CD and use that to boot off the drive?
I'm just curious as to whether that's possible.
