Thx to thowi:

Locking an Image offers now a very simple (no encryption yet) Password Protection against copy over and BOOT of locked images !

With multiboot.sh usbdriver (or in install option of menu interface)
you now can load the USB drivers if needed.

DON'T FORGET copy 1,2,3,... from V after the normale image copies
if you want to boot Images from USB until the imagebuilders adaptet their kernels to be linked with USB Drivers instead of having them loadable !

-------------------------------------------------------------

Locken eines Images bietet jetzt einen sehr einfachen (noch unverschlüsselten) Passwortschutz gegen drüberkopieren und BOOTEN gelockter Images !

Mit multiboot.sh usbdriver (oder in den install options vom Menu Interface) kann man jetzt die USB Driver nach Bedarf laden !

BITTE NICHT VERGESSEN das copy 1,2,3,... von V nach dem normalen Image copy wenn Ihr nachher die Images von USB booten wollt, bis die Imagebauer Ihre Kernel mit den USB Treibern linken, anstatt sie loadable zu haben.
