Dear List -
There is a problem with my Lenovo 8189-58U. It will not boot from
the CDROM. According to Google, it is a problem with the older BIOS.
I need to flash the BIOS, but I cannot boot from a USB stick.so...
How do I use GRUB to boot from a USB stick? Any other
suggestions?
TIA

Is it a 32-bit or 64-bit CPU? How old is it? Debian does compile for
32-bit architecture, for very old machines, so the 32-bit architecture
might not be optimized to "modern" 32-bit CPUs. Some other distros
ignore old hardware and compile for more recent 32-bit CPUs, so that the
