[X4U] MacBook + USB Drive + XP

Google "mac osx boot usb" without the quotes.  You'll find reference  
to a permissions problem using USB boot drives and a way to overcome it.

I've just gotten a 64 bit XP Pro working with minimal hassle, using  
VMware Fusion.  It even recognizes all four processors on my MacPro.  
Neet!  But I'm using the internal boot drive.

Good luck with it.
