I don't see why Linux couldn't boot from a USB drive. Of course, your BIOS
would have to be able to boot from a USB device.

Subject: [SLUG] Averatec notebook

I saw at best buy a notebook called Averatec. Does anybody have any
experience with this notebook? If I loaded RH 9 on it, will I find drivers
that work with the internal drives?
Everything is built inside. The only thing it does not have is a floppy
drive. I can buy a usb floppy drive. The other thing is, will linux boot
from a usb floppy drive?
