Your root partition can be on just about anything as long as the kernel
has support for it compiled in, it can't be a module. You'll need both
USB and usb-storage support compiled into the kernel to boot a pen
drive. This will mean a recompile since the stock kernel has atleast
usb-storage as a module.
