On these laptops, I have to press f9 to get the usb boot menu, so I guess
it will always be hd0. Is that what you mean by bios popup?

Yep, exactly.

Maybe I should be looking at the bios anyway as these machines will never
boot from anything other than USB. Although I suppose they could boot from
he dvd too for installation instead of from another usb. . .

laptops have a very minimal bios setup... Dunno why.
