You *should* be able to boot from it, copy whatever files need to go to the floppy to the root of the thumb drive.

Change the first BIOS boot option to USB-HDD or similar.

Yes, instead of retyping the instructions on how to do it for the fourth time, just follow these instructions - USB Drive Instructions -
