| 1 | Hi, |
| 2 | sorry, this is a bit off topic. |
| 3 | I have old hardware where the BIOS cannot boot from an USB device. |
| 4 | For testing a Gentoo problem (Balsa) I need to boot an older system. |
| 5 | Is it possible to boot from a cdrom drive and then "switch" to the kernel |
| 6 | with the full init process on a separate (USB) drive? |
| 7 | Is it possible with some Grub2 "tricks"? |
| 8 | |
| 9 | Many thanks for a hint |
