Boot Bios Usb 1.1 > Plop > Boot Hd on Usb2; can this work?

[silverni]

Motherboard SuperMicro P4SBA+, controller Usb 1.1, boot bios Usb 1.x
PCI Card Usb2 Sitecom CN-014
Plop 5.0.1.1 on MBR stick (many) on Usb1
Bootable HD on Usb2

Goal: Boot Bios Usb 1.1 > Plop > Boot Hd on Usb2
Result: Plop menu, I select Usb > [Enter] > Stop (works only warm reset Ctrl+Alt+Del)

This works:
Boot IDE HD (or floppy, CD) > Plop > Boot Hd on Usb2
Boot IDE HD (or floppy, CD) > Plop > Boot Hd on Usb1 (much faster than boot bios)
Boot Bios Usb 1.1 > kicker image (911cd.net) > Boot WinNT system on Usb2 Hd

5.0.1.1 does not exist. i think you mean 5.0.11

what text do you see on the screen when it hangs?
