I have reproduced the boot into busybox error with the persistent keyword with the hardy 8.04.2 livecd and can confirm that the daily livecd with build id 20090622.1 (from http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/hardy /daily-live/) containing casper 1.132ubuntu0.3 boots successfully with the persistent keyword and that the persistence feature works. I also completed a test install after having booted with the persistent keyword, and confirmed that installation continued to function as expected.
I should note that this testing was performed in a virtualbox environment and that the persistent casper-rw labeled partition existed as a partition on the disk image and not as a separate usb device, so I am unsure whether I have covered all of the relevant failure cases. Regardless, it seems that this update to casper improves the situation with respect to the persistence feature and doesn't appear to introduce regressions, thus I'm marking it verification-done.
