If your BIOS supports booting from USB, it should. You can use the livecd and run the 'Install to USB' script. If your BIOS doesn't support booting from USB, I can't help you. I'm trying to figure that one out myself.
USB boot

I booted an old HP Laptop with a Jump drive and a wakepup floppy.
The laptop didn't support USB booting, and it booted fine.
Win XP was hard crashed, puppy ran fine
Search the wiki for wakepup.
I hope this helps.
