You're starting from scratch with Linux dual booting on your Asus Vivobook S 14 Flip. It's a solid setup if you're comfortable with basic commands. Make sure your USB drive is formatted correctly for Pop OS and your internal SSD is ready for Windows 11. Check compatibility settings in both OSes, and consider using a USB bootloader if needed. Others have shared tips on partitioning and recovery options—good luck!

I believe it should function properly though you may need to adjust the boot sequence or select which OS to load. Besides, external USB drives or hard disks are generally not advised for storing your operating system, but they can work as long as the connection is stable.
