My idea was to build and use the ROSBE on FreeBSD, NetBSD or Linux to build the 
trunk, then install to a USB stick formatted FAT32.

Question is whether that could boot.

Linux, the BSDs and Haiku can be installed on a USB stick, but I believe 
MS-Windows can't.

I thought of buying a cheap refurbished SATA hard disk, maybe 80 or 160 GB, and 
using that to install ReactOS, FreeDOS and possibly something else (OpenBSD?), 
but ReactOS and FreeDOS have the limitation of having to be the first FAT16 or 
FAT32 partition on the disk, has to be drive C:

I might set up to boot with Syslinux.

Tom
