In my case it is the usb that is the first bootable medium as the laptop does not have anything else to boot from. Well, not quite true. It has a DVD drive but I don't use it. Everything works via the usb ports.
You don't, but the bios sees it. If the DVD goes first, then the installation is not in hd0 but in hd1... In mine, usb stick boot as hd0 because I get a bios popup to select from which device to boot, and if I select usb that makes that device the first device, hd0. If the bios attempts someother device, finds no boot code, then goes to the second device... it would be hd1. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
