 As soon as someone does the work. The setup is rather simple, but needs
 some tinkering.

 > I bring this up because I'm testing on physical hardware that has three
 boot options: USB CD-ROM, USB flash drive, or the proprietary internal
 almost-but-not-quite-IDE SSD (equivalent to /dev/hda).  I'd like to be
 able to test nightlies as well as spec builds out of svn, but the only
 practical way to do that is via USB flash - having to burn CDs on a
 regular basis would severely limit my ability to test effectively.

 Just take the raw images and put them on the flash drives. They are made
 for such use.

 Anyway I'm going to close this one as invalid, as it doesn't really match
 any of the existing problems.
