Salut Thierry Monteil,
This is really nice! I just tested it. Works on linux. But, I can't make a
mac os x to boot on the usb key...
Salut!
this is due to the fact that Mac can only understand GUID partition
tables, and the USB key has a traditional MBR partition table. I don't
know if it is worth changing this or if it will cause problem to some
old PC BIOSes.
That said, following Andrea Lazzarotto's advice, you can boot on a Mac
using a CD bootloader. You can find a working CD image on the download
page at

I added an explanation to the install doc:
http://sagedebianlive.metelu.net/INSTALL.html#os-x
I'm curious: would something like these instructions work?
(I'll probably try seeing if I can follow them, but I don't know too
much about the problems right now.)
