(I would already be very happy with, if you could resize the (only) partition so I could install my WINXP from the HD and use my and LINUX tools for WINDOWS to prepare the LiveUSBPendrive and get UBUNTU running.)

Mike, get a CD-R, cost about 0.20 euros, a DVD +R will cost just 
slightly more, burn the netbook remix iso.

Boot (no change to computer) from that cd, put in the usb pen drive 
(don't mount), then install (at applications, install release, manual 
partitions) to the usb, (sdb1).

Remember to install grub to sdb1 also, NOT sda. (under advanced).
