Hi Fred,

This worked:

# livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --format --overlay-size-mb 6624 
--unencrypted-home Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-20-1.iso /dev/sdc

# ls -al /media/LIVE/LiveOS/overlay-LIVE*
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 6945767424 Jun  2 14:21 
/media/LIVE/LiveOS/overlay-LIVE-080e62f1-2731-4790-a1eb-48175d703185

Live this feature!  Run once with too big and adjust downward.

Unable to fit live image + overlay on available space on USB stick
+ Size of live image:  582
+ Overlay size:  7000

I hope the persistence problem gets fixed soon.
