So the limitation makes no practical sense to me, except to prevent more sales of Kon-Boot licences so that it can be installed onto larger USB drives including large Easy2Boot USB Flash drives and USB hard-disk drives! In fact, what is more important, is that they should create a second Primary partition on the USB drive because there are still systems about which require this for MBR\Legacy booting! This was true on some very old systems about 20 years ago, but AFAIK, it is not required for systems that are in service today. This 16GB limitation is apparently applied because some BIOSes will not successfully MBR-boot to grub4dos if the USB drive capacity is larger than 16GB. However, the current previous Kon-Boot licensing system restricted you into making licensed bootable USB Flash drive of only 16GB or less. The good thing about Kon-Boot is that is does not change any files on the target system disk - it is all done in memory.
