Hi Bruno,
Would that apply to NTFS too? Are there BIOS'es that
won't boot off of NTFS? That would have to be a really
old machine.
In other words, if the motherboard can boot off
an NTFS hard drive, should it also be able to boot
off a USB EXT4 stick? (I am finding I have to go to
somewhat newer motherboards to get the USB boot option
in BIOS anyway.)
