I would like to be able to use an External USB hard drive on my laptop to be
able to do demos of different OS's. My BIOS supports booting from the USB
device and I can make it bootable to Win98. I've copied the I386 directory
and tried to do the Windows 2000 advanced server install, but when it
reboots, it blue screens with the message "inaccessible boot device"
