[ubuntu-us-mi] boot from Lucid USB partition on internal harddrive

[Robert Citek]

USB creator doesn't want to install to /dev/sda. <shakes head>  And
the VBox OSE version with 8.04 doesn't have a virtual USB device.
<shakes head>  And ssh from the guest to the host OS is abysmally
slow. <shakes head>

I know this can be done.  It's just a matter of finding the right mojo
to make it work.

But for now that's three strikes, which means it's time to do
something else, e.g. clean the house.
