i know nothing about the encoder board. here is a tutorial for installing ubuntu from a flash drive http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/02/12/usb-ubuntu-tutorial-for-linux-users/. if you want to install linuxmce, you have to do it with a cd. i don't know how it will take the installation, but generally, it depends by the cpu in your computer.
