I simply put the Live CD, put the USB flash drive and wrote persistent on
the prompt.
And that was it!
Well I needed to put the Live CD every time put that was fine for me.

[hardy] livecd: keyword persistent
I used the pendrivelinux
instructionshttp://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/05/08/usb-ubuntu-804-persistent-install-via-the-live-cd/and
it worked.
Sure, I formatted with fdisk, setup my partitions etc. and it worked.
Let me repeat it again: before hardy came out, I was using persistent mode
with my usb
I used the tutorials on pendrivelinux with a tutorial on the ubuntu wiki
pages to get a live CD and a usb stick working together.
Because I cannot boot from USB sticks on the different pcs I am
frequenting.
The point is, I am not a linux expert. I tried to use that tutorial only
because it
that I dont know.
I downloaded the iso and burned and it worked.
In any case would be nice if you could fix this, in the meantime Ill use my
BartPE Windows Live CD.

[hardy] livecd: keyword persistent results in
I tried the whole night to get a bootable iso. No no..
For me it's still a bug.
Anyway I didn't succeed, I am frustrated and this is not a workaround.
mounting an iso, unpacking a cpio file packing it again and trying to
figure out how to make a bootable iso with a buggy mkisofs.. WTH!! As
usual
All the pcs I'm using can't boot directly from USB so I need to use the boot
CD.
I guess I need to unpack the ISO change the initrd and repack it again.

that would be great!
I was reading through the thread yesterday.. I got lost..
There are at least 2 initrd.gz packs and a dozen of instructions..
I want simply to use the distro with a usb stick! Not to feel ashamed about
my ignorance ;)
** Attachment added: unnamed
could somebody please take care of this bug..
Its a very useful feature and for me nearly essential as I must use different
pcs.
