I have 18 brand new Gateway towers at work (I can supply the model
numbers after school restarts next week). I wanted to clone them using
dd and an external usb hard drive. I couldn't boot 6.x or 7.x CDs on
any of the boxes, but I was able to install 7 (I didn't try 6.x) on a
usb stick, set the BIOS to boot from the device and run FreeBSD (and dd)
from there.
These machines have CDRW/DVDR drives installed. I've had no problem
running any content based media from them at all, but I haven't tried
booting any other media (like WinXP) from them, either.

Not in this case. As I mentioned in a prior post, I tried booting
with the 7.0-BETA4 ISO and got the exact same results.
Response:
Yes, sorry about that; was in too much of a hurry and missed the later
posts.
