    Yes. You can do it. You can install Linux on USB. The one OS I use Ubuntu linux can be installed in a flash drive. (Even the other flavours of Linux too should be able to do it).

    Here's the link for installing Ubuntu in flash drive.

    Nothing. If you are connecting from home, then there is no proxy setting. In any case whatever the configuration you use for windows. Same will be applicable here. If no proxy servers, it will automatically connect to net.

    Make sure you change your boot sequence accordingly. (USB as your first boot device), once you install Ubuntu in PPen drive.

    ALL the best!
