I installed fedora 8 in a 40 gb usb hard disk which works well with bios support for usb boot at college. but my home desktop doesnt have bios support.How can I get / create a boot cd so that I can boot from the usb hdd ?.I tried the boot from second hard disk using the ultimate bootcd .But threw up an MBR NOT FOUND error

Add an entry for it in your current boot menu ...
Or chroot into it ...
