Any USB CD / DVD drive can easily be installed; just plug it into one of the USB ports on the Eee PC. Both Windows XP and Linux should be able to see it; and you can boot from it in the BIOS.

Note that there are other Linux distros customized for the Eee PC that are available free of charge if you want to try another Linux distro.
