How to turn an old iPod classic into a new emergency boot drive for Mac

[INFO]The gist is that a bootable iPod can be a very helpful tool when your Mac is refusing to start up or is generally misbehaving, and you’d like to boot it from another drive and use troubleshooting tools on the iPod to diagnose (and, you hope, repair) your Mac.
[/INFO]

Did it with my old classic since I have other iPods I use for other reasons and a great idea. Thanks for the Tip Rene.

The iPod Classic is the one device I wish I had gotten a hold of. Anyway, if I had one, I would definitely consider using it as an emergency boot drive if only to test it out.
