You don´t understand. The U3 "cd-emulation" partition normally holds
only the windows version of the U3 software.

But you can *hack* it, (using the u3 software updater and a local web
server) and make it install *ANY* ISO image into the CD-emulation
partition.

THAT´s where it becomes useful.

But of course that is not an officially supported procedure, it´s a hack.

But hey, works for me...
