Boot from memory-stick?

[Monkey Pet]

I am trying to figure out booting from a USB memory stick also. 
Basically, I have installed linux and don't want to put grub on the
MBR since I have a dell laptop and don't want to blow alway the
recovery utilities, etc.  I am currently booting into linux using a CD
created by the mkbootdisk program.  I want to be able to do the same
thing, but put it on the usb memory stick.  What would be idea is just
to put grub on the memory stick and be able to point it to the hd to
do the actual booting.  I know my bios supports booting off the memory
stick.
