Don't know about the USB drive.  I run SL5 on a eeePC "Box", the
desktop/screenback version of the device.  I recall jumping through
some hoops getting the intel video driver working with a 1400x1050
screen.  I also opened the box (voiding the warranty) to add RAM
and a larger hard drive.  Other than that, no problems.  I attached
two "boxes" on the back of my wife's LCD monitor at work, with a
DVI video switch. 

One box runs WinXP and is disconnected from everything except the
peripherals and a USB backup drive.  Used for medical dictation
with Dragon Naturally Speaking.  The other box runs SL5 and connects
to the world, the VPN, etc.
