    Hi,
    I own an Averatec 2100 (2155-EH1 to be exact) and it was advertised to have the option to boot from a USB drive. I installed Puppy Linux to my USB drive and ensured that the device was set to bootable in the partition manager.

    I went to the BIOS setup for the 2100, and there are no options to boot from USB! I looked everywhere.

    Has anyone gotten it to work? If so, can you provide detailed instructions for the process?
