well, initially i had thought simply run pd, not the os, i'm a winxp user most of the time, and i have various day-to-day apps, and processing(.org) running from a usb stick at the moment...

but i have also been thinking about trying damnsmalllinux out on said usb stick, and finding out whether that runs both from within osx and winxp, in which case that's probably the most flexible use-anywhere set up i could hope for.

i'm open to suggestions.

and THANKS for the info thus far! :)

At the moment your computer is able to boot on USB drive, there are many
solutions.
The question is not enough precise, anyway, do you want to run pd from
an USBdrive,
or do you want to run an OS from an USBdrive and then to run pd from this?

For both question there is an answer but it really depends on which
hardware you use.
