Changing the partition structure allows my Data Traveller to boot from home,
a MSI K8MM-V motherboard.

At work, it does not boot, it is an HP Compaq d220 MT with unknown
motherboard. The bios has the USB boot option
but it does not want to boot from my flash drive for some reason that I
still have to find out.
