Installing Fedora on USB DiskOnKey and booting from different machine

Hi,
I installed Fedora 11 on a DiskOnKey. I booted from this DiskONKey
successfully on the machine
on which I made the installation. However, when I tried on two
different machines, it failed, and it reached the
grub command line. On a third machine it reached a line containing the
word GRUB only.
I wonder - is there a way to install Fedora 11 on a DiskOnKey so that
it will boot from any machine (which is capable of booting from USB )?
Note: I had made my trials on motherboards after verifying that these
motherboards **do** support boot from
USB disk on key.
This is the grub.conf on the USB DiskOnKey:
title Fedora (2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64 ro root=UUID=e73e50db-2420
-4792-a347-3e15ed38c5b9 rhgb quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64.img
Regards,
Mark
