If your motherboard supports boot from USB I don't see any problems in that. But remember that USB-drives doesn't wear evenly, so it may fail faster than any ordinary SSD-drive.
Should be relatively easy to test your proposal

AW: running the OS from a USB Flash Device
Hi.
Sorry, but this don't work as Windows will NOT install on a removable disk at all. There are few USB Sticks that can possibly be modified by changing the "removable Flag" in it's firmware but no one ever can give you a guarantee. Most of the time nothing happens at all but in worst case you can destroy the stick.
You can only install a "Live" Version like BartsPE ore something like that to a removable drive.
The "better" way is to use a CF Card with internal cf2sata adapter as this won't be recognised as "removable".

MP runs fine on the VM but I no longer have a tv tuner to test if passthrough is possible. I don't think it would work anyway.

Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal.
Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...
