This doesn't look correct to me. Each IPL ("Initial Program Load") is
a specific method the bios uses to load an initial image. A USB boot
does not use a different boot method - it uses the harddrive method.
If you're looking for a different description to be printed, then I
recommend enhancing the IPL_TYPE_HARDDISK code so that it can print
the desired description.
