I think it would need to boot from BIOS, so the laptops would have
to support that. Gotta check that with the potential business
partners.
not all do, but nearly everything could boot from a floppy or CD-ROM,
so you have that for a backup.
Doing it from grub/lilo from a minimal on-disk installation to a
USB device is a lot easier, and can be done on older hardware
pretty trivially.
use grub, not lilo.
