*Technical Discussion of Live USB's:  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB#Data_Persistence
 +
::Limited Lifetime of Persistent Overlay
 +
One very important note about using the "primary" persistent overlay for system changes is that due to the way it's currently implemented (as a LVM copy-on-write snapshot),
 +
every single change to it (writes AND deletes) subtracts from its free space, so it will eventually be "used up" and your USB stick will no longer boot.
 +
Because of these limitations, it is advisable to use the system-level persistence sparingly, for configuration changes and important security updates only.
 +
For a truly persistent write-many (vs write-once) overlay, use the --home-size-mb option to create a home directory filesystem image for personal files.
 +
Unlike the primary system overlay image, the home.img can be re-used and loop mounted outside of the liveusb environment.
 +

=====Cautions with u3 USB sticks=====
 +
*'''USB sticks with u3 partition will not boot with liveusb-creator'''
 +
* '''CAUTION:''' Formatting the USB-stick will not remove the hidden (virtual CD-ROM drive)
 +
* How to remove hidden u3 partition
 +
:Linux: http://u3-tool.sourceforge.net/
 +
:Windoz: Insert u3 Stick then click on tray icon for u3; select delete u3 partition, once it is deleted the USB-stick will work with liveusb-creator
