Linux Ubuntu External HDD

[wakerider017]

Is is possible to boot Linux Ubuntu on an external drive?

Thanks!


EDIT:

Also since I have a C2D CPU can I download the:

"64bit AMD and Intel computers" version instead of the regular X86 version...

Maybe I shouldn't have posted about Linux in the basic help section...

Here's one way to do it:
