I would think it would work like it would if you simply changed the drive letter for installation.  The thing is, even if you install on a flash drive, you can still only run it on that computer because of files that get installed within the common and program data folders.  how large of. Flash drive are you using?

Your question is different than the OP.

To install it from a flash drive, you would download it, double click on the exe, it will unzip it to the c:\autodesk folder, if it auto starts the install, cancel it, then go in and copy the contents of the c:\autodesk folder to the flash drive, you could then use that to install it on another computer, that is how I have done our installs from our network for years.
