Hi,

I was wondering if it was possible to boot the existing F40 installation from a USB.  I tried to research this but everything I was able to find dealt with booting a live image of F40 from USB and/or installing a live image of F40 on a USB.

What I want is to create a USB stick with /boot and /boot/efi fs in such a way that it boots an existing F40 installation on a HD.

I am not talking about rescuing the system from a live Fedora USB.  I am talking about a fully automatic boot of an existing installed Fedora from a USB.

Thinking of this further:

If I create /boot and /boot/efi fs on the USB, copy all content from original /boot and /boot/efi to it and then modify /etc/fstab so that it points to UUID of the USB instead of the original /boot and /boot/efi, it should do the trick. Or not?

Cheers
Frank
