I have one (a T61).  It doesn't seem to have this problem, to the best
of my knowledge.

I found and fixed a Thinkpad bug in 2007, I'm assuming this isn't the
problem.

At the same time, it is hardly a secret that USB boot support is awful,
and that a lot of platforms have problems.  I'll try the T61 again just
to make sure there isn't a regression, but at least at one point memdisk
did work on mine.
