> is it possible to even boot from a usb drive? Is the interface fast enough?

I do not understand how speed inters into booting.

>>You would want the modules added into your initrd file in the /boot
>>directory.

   Booting is not a LINUX job, it is a BIOS function, if you can boot into
DOS with any device you can boot into LINUX with that device.
       (I did not say the OS will be on it, I would use LOADLIN)
   I am sure some BIOS's in some mommy boards will or shall do it.
