I used an external usb DVD drive and the alternate install version of Ubuntu which allows you to target the installation to certain partitions and manipulate those partitions (since I wanted to retain XP for now), but, as mentioned in the Ubuntu thread, it can certainly also be installed with a thumb drive.
s10 white, 1.5GB RAM, triple boot: XP, Ubuntu 8.04.1 and 8.10.
