I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "USB cd-rom boot to dos". If you mean "Can I use a bootable cd?" The answer is no. If you mean "Can I make a boot disk that will run a USB CDROM?" The answer is unlikely. There is very, very limited experimental support for a tiny handful of USB CDROMS on the Win '98 SE boot disk. Check at the web site of the CDROM maker, there is a remote chance they might have a DOS level driver. If they have one: please, please let us know about it.
