Ok, here's my setup. I have a notebook with 2k running on it. I also have a desktop with XP. This summer I am taking my desktop HDD, my laptop, and my firewire-IDE enclosure with me and leaving the desktop CPU behind. Has anyone had any experience, or do you know if it's possible for me to boot with XP from the firewire device. It's a sony SR33 and I know it will only boot from hard disk, but once I start up 2k is there anyway to shutdown and boot into XP?

Thanks!

I'd be very interested in this, too. Maybe something that will fit on a floppy that can boot up the 1394 drive?
