Don't see any reason why you idea of putting /boot and grub on a USB drive and putting / (root) on the esata drive won't work. Don't think it will hurt anything to try. You should be able to install...

I'm a dinosaur - remember how cool it was to dial into a BBS. :D with a 1200 baud modem.

Depends - if you have 3rd party software or in your case ppa repositories. the upgrade path is pretty much hit or miss. It is recommended to disable ppa and none official software sources.
