Make sure xp is installed first, then install vista on a different partition. Then when you boot, you would be prompted to boot into xp or vista. You could install it on a external, but it would be extremely slow and same goes for the os. Again, make sure you install it on a different partition than xp.

To make different partitions you could use something like gparted.

Good Luck!
