Comment(by parasytic):

 Patch for my first attempt is included.  This has worked for me on two
 different machines (Dell Zino HD and a Lenovo laptop) both which report
 different hard drive geometry!  I've also tested it on three completely
 different USB flash drives.  It's a good start, but this really needs more
 testing from the community, IMO.  I'll announce this on unattended-devel
 to get a larger test surface.

 Before this is committed to SVN, I think I would rather have the install-
 flashboot script written in Perl, just so it "fits in" with the common
 theme.  I'm not the best Perl hacker, so I started with a shell script.
