   I'm sure this is basically easy but I can't find a simple description   
   of how to do it. If you search for anything about 'boot' and 'USB'   
   you are immediately flooded with descriptions of how to boot from USB   
   and that's not what I want.   
      
   I have an ancient Pi B+ that does all I need where it is but I'd like   
   to be less reliant on the SD card. You can't (easily) boot such an   
   old Pi from USB and I don't really need to, I just want to make it so   
   that once booted all activity is on a USB drive.   
      
   Is it simply a matter of leaving /boot on the SD card and changing /   
   to being a USB drive or does one need to edit something in /boot   
   somewhere?
