Re: How to Make Portable XP ?
Virtualbox does not support portable installs.
Some other projects claim to, but I never tried them so cannot tell you how good it is. Google portable virtualbox and you should find them.

Re: How to Make Portable XP ?
To make an installation of windows xp "portable", as in bootable through the usb bus, you need usboot, which can be found at usboot dot org. It requires registration, and online activation per use, but it's free. And you only need to do it once. There is also a support forum.
