When building a custom LiveCD adding `export PERSISTENT="Yes"` in
`/etc/casper.conf` works.

Bootable USB-sticks should be fixed by editing the
`/boot/grub/grub.conf` that you will find on your USB-stick. Replace the
following part

```
menuentry "Try Ubuntu without installing" {
        set gfxpayload=keep
        linux   /casper/vmlinuz.efi  file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed 
boot=casper quiet splash --
        initrd  /casper/initrd.lz
}
```
with
```
menuentry "Try Ubuntu without installing" {
        set gfxpayload=keep
        linux   /casper/vmlinuz.efi  file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed 
boot=casper quiet splash persistent --
        initrd  /casper/initrd.lz
}
```
(the new thing here is the `persistent` flag).
