Yes. Please mind that Porteus Kiosk is based on Gentoo. You may try Slackware package but squid from Gentoo stable branch would be the best.
"how i can make squid start at boot ?"
You have to create a custom startup script and add it to your squid module in /etc/rc.d/local_net.d folder. Example:
Perhaps you could mount writable partition and place your cache on it.
If you get into troubles then i recommend our customized builds service:
