It'll be interested to see what kind of performance one achieves

Certainly, I know that when I have a moment, I'm going to prep a
16GB card with two bootable partitions; one containing an emergency
Leopard boot image configured to use my user account on the internal
drive and one that contains DiskWarrior and a couple of other tools.
I was intrigued to read this and thought I would give it a go. I
installed the latest Snow Leopard (10A411) onto a 16GB card that was
hanging off my MacBook Pro using a USB2 card reader. It installed onto
the card OK and it even appears as an available startup disk, but the
Mac doesn't seem to want to boot off this "disk": just comes up with
the question-mark-in-a-folder symbol. How do you get the SD card to
act as a bootable drive?
