I saw this link on how to create a version of Fedora that can boot directly from a USB stick and have persistent storage as large as the stick itself.

I tried this method to no avail. I have also read this answer but I am still unclear:

I am wondering if there is an official way to do this? Can someone describe a method or point me to the direction of the best way to make a usb-bootable version of Ubuntu with more than 4GB of storage?

NOTE: I am interested in any solutions but preferably this would work cross platform.

  • @karel, yep, I read that (see linked to in my answer) however that didn't work. I am trying to see if that is still the best way to do it or if there is an alternative. – Startec Sep 03 '15 at 07:39

You can use http://www.linuxliveusb.com/en/home to create a usb bootable with persistent storage.

Check the Help to have more than 4Gb : http://www.linuxliveusb.com/en/help/faq/persistence and this link http://www.pendrivelinux.com/create-a-larger-than-4gb-casper-partition/

  • For cross platform https://unetbootin.github.io/ can replace linux live usb. (seems persistent storage works only for ubuntu live usb) – Inglebard Sep 03 '15 at 07:42
