Does anyone know how to install grub on a usb device?

I tried to copy vmlinuz, initrd.img on /boot parition on usb device.
Then i created grub.conf and all the rest, and ran grub-install
/dev/sd?? (don't remember numbers now).

Of course it didn't work. :(

I need to make that usb accessibile device bootable: it's a box that
holds my laptop hdd.

Any hint?
