Create a Multiboot CD or USB flash drive

"I want to have a business card size CD with which I could boot multiple floppy images (I don't want to carry floppies with me because of their size, fragility, and lack of reliability). I'm posting this because someone might find it useful. Basically I want a CD that has: [...]

* Ghost boot disks
* Mini (floppy) Linux distribution for recovery and other purposes.
* DSL and Puppy floppy images that load DSL or Puppy from USB flash drive (in case the BIOS of the computer does not support USB booting directly)."

On my Ubuntu 4 You blog found at http://tazbuntu.blogspot.com
I have download links to a small (136 Meg) Iso that boots up to Damn Small Linux and Puppy Linux.

It also includes a Memtest routine.

From my blog I also included links to a forum post where there is a script available to auto make multi-boot Cd's and DVD's.

Thanks for your article as this will be helpful to make other custom multiboot disks.
