I successfully used boot sector from one of my USB sticks on my other
USB sticks. Note however that the boot sector seems to require a
specific format of the drive - if I formatted the USB stick on Linux,
it wouldn't work. However, now that I know how to use chain.c32, I use
that instead:

label bartpe
        kernel chain.c32
        append hd0 ntldr=/minint/setupldr.bin

(Note: you must rename i386 directory to minint for it to work off USB
stick, at least with BartPE).
