Debian Live on a USB memory stick?

[simon at mungewell.org (simon)]

Hi,
I guess the answer is in my question about overlaying another data
partition. See:
http://lists.debian-unofficial.org/pipermail/live/2006-April/000109.html

I would appear that it is possible with Casper to nest a data partition
on top of the bootable image, but you need to type in some boot options
that presently you can't do.

Fdisk on USB stick would be something like:
/dev/sda1 - bootable image
/dev/sda2 - data partition

Cheers,
Simon.
