Since it hasn't beeen mentioned yet: for old systems that doesn't have "boot from usb" in BIOS, but can boot from CD / DVD, the Plop Boot Manager[1] is useful. It allows you boot Plop from CD, then boot a usb from Plop. References: 1) https://www.plop.at/en/bootmanager/intro.html -- Torfinn Ingolfsen
