The only external USB device that you can boot from is a genuine Sony floppy drive.

There is no option in the Bios to select USB in the boot order.

Hi Icecube and welcome to ClubVaio.

William is right - USB is not supported by DOS so it won't work.

I believe PCMCIA is supported by DOS and an external CD drive connected by PCMCIA may work.
