I have a Pentium !!! 1.13 Ghz with 384 mb of ram intel motherboard pc is 3 years old. I tried to install it from the live cd but it stoped the installation when i reached 51% the next time it stoped at 50% and so on. I think the cd rom is not installing it well and it heat up very quikly when I install ubuntu but for other operations it works well such as to installing windows XP.
can i copy the setup to a 1 Gb usb drive and boot it as primary and install ubuntu to my pc.

As long as you have the USB set up to work in the BIOS, AND as long as you have the USB drivers loaded on the USB Drive itself.
Just like the CD-ROM, the BIOS doesn't contain the drivers to the CD-ROM or USB slots, just the bits to recognize that they are attached. The Drivers are usually a part of the install CD. This way, when the BIOS looks for "Other Bootable Drives" it should find the USB drivers on your USB Drive.

Probably. See: http://www.althack.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=24&Itemid=27
However, your PC's BIOS must support booting from USB.
