Hi
It did pop up here
using Jason's suggestion of formatting from windows.
I am trying to get it now such that it persists between resets without
having to reformat/etc

You are missing to format the device as FAT(32).
Actually you can skip the step of running fdisk at the file, Windows
can read mass storage devices without partitions table, it just look
for the FAT boot sector at the first block.
So try making your step 2:
mkfs.msdos /opt/usbfile
