Hi all,
I've downloaded and started to play with the F13 liveUSB beta and I'm looking forward to upgrading from my F12.
Before then I am looking to understand more about the persistant storage available on my USB stick and how I can put my home folder on to the stick so my apps and settings are all there ready to install to the HDD at my leisure.
What I don't understand at the moment is how my LiveUSB of F13 is set up. Before now (albeit without persistant storage) my LiveUSB appears as a single mounted drive just like my HDD. Everything else seemed buried in there somewhere. With my F13 LiveUSB I have a whole load of partitions and so can't figure out how to activate the right part as persistent and am a little cautious of screwing something up.
Could anyone please advise on how to activate persistant storage?
I have tried this (from the Fedora Wiki -
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora...ta_Persistence)
Code:
livecd-iso-to-disk --overlay-size-mb 2047 /media/4C84-C304/F13-Beta-i686-Live/F13-Beta-i686-Live.iso /dev/sdb1
Although I think because there are so many parts to the USB stick now (partitions/LVM/swap - I'm not sure) it isn't picking up the right part as the storage...
Here's the output when I type
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/live-rw 3.0G 2.6G 374M 88% /

Any/all help appreciated!!
Thanks in advance
