XP is not designed to run from a USB stick. There is a very
complicated hack I read about somewhere but it would be way more
trouble than it's worth.

OTOH: A bootable USB stick is easy to do with Linux

Actually WinPE and BartPE (both available in XP versions) run just fine
from an USB stick, CD, or whatever. Also XP Embedded also runs fine too.

To take the classic XP though is tricky because it requires about three
pages of registry changes. But then there are scripts available that
will that care of that in one mouse click. ;-)
