Is this possible? Boot from thumb drive, select ISO image from menu to load?

Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but it seems to me booting from thumb drives requires way more effort that is reasonable. I've connected USB floppy drives and USB optical drives to do stuff when loading stuff up on a thumb drive would be way easier.

So, I was thinking back to my DOS days and boot disks when I could load up a menu and select the appropriate config.sys and autoexec.bat files to load depending on the game I wanted to play. Is there a way to do that with ISO files on a thumb drive?

I'd love to have a big thumb drive with a bunch of ISO files for memtest86, SeaTools, WinXP, whatever, and just pick which one I want.

Am I crazy or overlooking something already available?
