Re: [Full-Disclosure] Bootable Memorystick?

[Thorsten Peter <boba@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

why shouldnt you be able to boot to a memory stick?
almost every vendor lists "bootable" as a feature of their 
sticks.....you simply need a board that is able to boot from USB 
device....that's it.

but i don't get what this question got to do with security mailing lists ;-)
