[Bug 302485] [NEW] No persistence with USB Creator in Ubuntu 8.10
Public bug reported: I'm using Ubuntu 8.10, with all the latest updates. My problem is I cannot get Ubuntu on a USB "WITH" persistence. USB Creator GUI works fine and does in fact install Ubuntu. It boots fine, but basically I only get a LiveCD type functionality out of it. If I try saving anything in the home folder, the USB becomes unbootable. The error message at startup says "Push F1 to retry boot" Has anyone else noticed this? Perhaps I'm doing something wrong. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- No persistence with USB Creator in Ubuntu 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/302485 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I think that some USB flash drives will work for this and others will not. When I originally filed this bug report, I used an 8gig PNY attache' later on I tried with a 16gig Corsair flash voyager and it worked fine... persistence and all. -- No persistence with USB Creator in Ubuntu 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/302485 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I guess they are planning on relying on the ext4 filesystem right? B/c I think you can have huge single files. I'm not sure about that at all though. -- No persistence with USB Creator in Ubuntu 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/302485 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
