Multi-boot USB drive
I've got a 32GB USB Flash drive on order and would like to do the following if possible:

Store multiple ISO files on this Linux, Windows etc

be able to plug it in to a PC boot off the USB and be able to select which ISO to boot from.

So i can plug it in browse to Win 7 Profess 64bit and then re-build a system.
Stick it in another system and install XP etc form the same stick.

I have seen some bit's like grub4dos but was interested if anyone on bit-tech has this working.

That would be Lilo? It's a Linux bootloader.
I personally use GRUB installed on my 32GB 'recovery' memory stick. GRUB then loads any Linux/BSD/sensible-based operating systems, and calls on GRUB4DOS to load Windows 7 Install! A bit complicated, but it seems to work. GRUB4DOS is a single executable which is directly chainloaded from GRUB, and is set to automatically boot into Windows 7 Install. The tricky part is modifying the BCD store of Windows 7 Install to use a sub-folder, rather than the folder in the root of the drive (/sources to /boot/win-install). The built in tool of Windows, bcdedit, let me do this.
