In theory thats what it means but formatting the usb pendrive must be done so it boots like a cd.

I promise you it would be easier to borrow or plugin a usb cdrom drive.

It makes little difference what make it is except the manufacturer will have pendrive format instructions. In principal there is little difference.

People asking questions are never thick. Thats why they ask questions!

Always handy to know what make it is
