i have here a usb flash drive with Xubuntu 8.04.1 Hardy installed on it, i'm
not sure either via unetbootin or wubi.  i want to boot into it, from this
here thinkpad that has no usb bios support.  can anyone share with me a
suitable incantation that can be included in the grub.conf on my hd to boot
this little beast?.  either syslinux.cfg or isolinux/isolinux.cfg (both
pasted below) probably contain suitable clues, but i might need a bit more
magic..?
tia,
