 If you have a special delay for USB booting, you can include this delay in the normal minirt24.gz linuxrc file.
 
 But we do not want to see this delay all the time especially for livecd or Hard Drive frugal bootups, so it would only be activated using a special cheatcode, IE:
 
 dsl usbdelay
 
 and in the linuxrc:
 
 if cmdline has "usbdelay" then
 ...
 do the usb time delay
 ...
 fi
 
 and they you add the "usbdelay" cheatcode to all of the append lines inside the USB drive's syslinux.cfg file (at the same time that the cheatcode "frugal" is added to the same file).
 
 Does this sound do-able, or am i on the wrong track?
