[ltp] Thinkpads can not boot from flash drive?

[Martin Gramatke]

Hi,

I have a little 128MB USB flash drive here with a complete, bootable linux
desktop. See http://www.damnsmalllinux.org

It works great even old computers from the last decade, but not on my
Thinkpad X24!

I tried all options from the F12 menu. I fiddled in the bios setup to no
avail.

Am I doing something wrong?

Are all Thinkpads that deficient? Can you boot from a usb flash drive?

regards
Martin
