Go to Post There's "FIRST the organization" and then there's "FIRST the vision for the future through a set of ideals". I've grown somewhat skeptical of the former in recent years, but, after 10 years, I'd still throw myself in front of a bus for the latter. - Rich Kressly [more]

The iPod, from what I understand, acts just like a Firewire disk, so theoretically, if you're able to boot off of Firewire, you should be able to boot from it.

Um, the catch is whether or not you're able to retain use of the iPod as, well, an iPod. Chances are that putting something boot-related on that disk will cause the iPod's software to barf or something similar.
