This is a important step. :-)

Like debian-live? 

As I know the problem with devices that are removeable and often uesed
on other ports began after leaving DOS calls. Thats why syslinux works
better than grub. 

After you have load kernel and initrd I have not found a way to detect
from where I have boot (commandline does not work in this case). If your
system ist ready to run, no problem, but on the other side you must
search for your filesystem. :-( 

If the script ist ready I will try it. Hopefully it works here after I
installed a fresh fai. :-)
