Ok, that's fine. I'm changing the ticket to "enhancement" since it was
never announced that we would support this.
You may try to build a boot image manually using mkdiskimage from linux:
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/booting-linux-from-usb-zip-on-older-systems/
Then copying our raw partition to it and running makebootable on it. I
don't know if this is enough to get usb-zip working, or if more tricks are
needed.
An alternative is booting from a CD, or using a boot manager with USB
support such as plop (http://www.plop.at/en/bootmanagers.html) to boot
Haiku from USB.
