Will it boot? I remember that booting from usb sticks used to be a big

It boots on my system and I think it will on every not too old system.

Hmm, you could try to integrate this into nrelease/Makefile, so that
specifying 'image', as in e.g. 'make installer release image' would
create an additional dfly.img besides the dfly.iso.

Has been committed to nrelease/Makefile.
