[Fedora-livecd-list] persistence still doesn't work

[ToddAndMargo]

Hi All,

Persistence still doesn't work.

I just opened up

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220015

I will quote it here:

Dear Red Hat,

I am coming from the community: Scientific Linux 6.6 x64.  I am trying 
to create a Live USB with persistence.  Would one of our intrepid heroes 
please fix this for me?

The Stick is 16 GB.   It is formatted as ext3.

# rpm -qa livecd-tools
livecd-tools-13.4.5-1.el6.x86_64


According to this:

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/10/html/Release_Notes/sn-Live_USB_persistence.html

      livecd-iso-to-disk --overlay-size-mb 512 /path/to/live.iso /dev/sdb1

      "Replace /dev/sdb1 with the partition where you want to put
      the image.  Replace 512 with the desired size in megabytes
      of the persistent data, or overlay. The livecd-iso-to-disk
      shell script is stored in the LiveOS directory at the top
      level of the CD image. The USB media must have sufficient
      free space for the Fedora Live image, plus the overlay,
      plus any other data to be stored on the media."

This is my command line:

livecd-iso-to-disk --overlay-size-mb 13287 
Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-21-5.iso /dev/sdc1


After booting off the Live USB, I get the following:
df -kPT /
Filesystem          Type 1024-blocks    Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/mapper/live-rw ext4     3030800 2431496    551468      82% /

Means the persistence is set at the default of 3GB.

Many thanks,
-T
