There's a little bit of code for it that Aaron wrote, but it's something very close to 100% untested at this point. It's definitely something to start offering at some point.
Yeah, take a peek at the difference in the "boot-cd" and "boot-usb" hooks. It should be very straightforward, it's just a matter of finding the proper usb device that we booted from.
