Persistence not working on live debian



Hi,

I just created few debian-live hybrid isos from http://live-build.debian.net/cgi-bin/live-build, and tried to make them persistent, but no success.
Can somebody help me with that?
I attached build config.

I just dd the iso to my flash drive, create another partition from free space. Labeled it live-rw and nothing happens after boot.
I have persistent boot param (checked from /proc/cmdline).
I tried to read lib/live/boot/overlay.sh and find problem, but no success.

I tried also to build my own live-debian on squeeze, boot my new image in virtual machine, add another live-rw named partition and the same problem - no presistence.
I'm clueless now.
Can you please help me?

PS: Why is default (selected) boot variant the second one (failsafe) when I use online builder?
