Default Using Flash (Thumb) Drive via Floppy Boot Disk

Hi Gary,

What OS can you launch off a CD, that allows you to use a flash drive?

Thanks in advance, Brad

You're talking about a DOS OS, and I don't think they make drivers for flash
drives to support DOS. Thus, you would need to find a different operating
system that can boot from a CD and support flash drives. (I don't think
anyone has a floppy-based system that supports flash drives, but I may be
wrong.) Off the top of my head (which doesn't remember much these days), I
know of one such OS:
