I did do that, then tried to boot the USB drive. It wouldn't boot.
Why didn't it boot? Sorry if you said, and I missed it.
My thought is that after copying/dd'ing to the usb drive, mount the
drive, and play with the grub config file, or whatever, to deal with
whatever stops it from booting. You could blacklist modules, or add
boot parameters, or ..... Of course, if you don't know what's
actually causing the problem, it's harder to avoid.
Maybe you'll figure it out in a New Year's miracle!
