It should work on the USB stick and possibly the SDHC card. Stick with FAT32, as Ubuntu must install MS proprietary drivers to read exFAT (easy installed once you’ve got Ubuntu working). NTFS rewrites too much on the card and is likely to cause earlier failure.
Can you run Linux on an SD card?

Can you run an operating system from an SD card?
