Sorry if it is a repeated answer.
You should look on #6 on FAQ on http://adrian15.raulete.net/grub/
where I explain how to setup/install grub on a usb device.

Then you should read the man pages to write your own menu.lst (Usually
when booting from a usb drive this usb drive becomes hd0 and the 1st
hard disk is now: hd1.

Then you should learn how your minios will read from the usb which it is
somewhat difficult I suppose (Of course if you want your minios to read
from the usb. I am not very expert but I think Grub could put your
minios on RAM... boot it... and then the minios runs in RAM.)
