Boot Loader Is Not Installed On Removeable Media
An XCCDF Rule
Description
The system must not allow removable media to be used as the boot loader.
Remove alternate methods of booting the system from removable media.
usb0, cd, fd0, etc. are some examples of removeable
media which should not exist in the lines:
set root='hd0,msdos1'
