The computer system comprises a universal serial bus (USB) storage device storing a boot image, servers and a boot image sharer comprising USB ports, a memory, a first USB host controller and a micro-processor. The micro-processor controls the first USB host controller to emulate each USB port to the USB storage device, and stores the boot image to memory, such that the boot image is shared to the USB ports. The servers are respectively coupled to the USB ports, wherein each server comprises a second USB host controller and a basic input output system (BIOS).
