Add persistence option

See original GitHub issue

I can’t remember which app does it (perhaps usb-creator-gtk) but I remember being able to choose the free space for writing files when booting a Live USB such as Ubuntu.

Is this supported / could this be supported?

Ah yes. Quarter Gig of an app to do what a 0.000075 Gig dd tool does — but with eyecandy.

What a waste of my SSD capacity!

The app so beautifully displays the 16 GiB flash capacity I picked to boot from — only to put a measly 1.3G of casper-rw free space on it.

What a waste of my flash capacity!

Honestly guys? I’m disappointed. Four orders of magnitude bloat is not okay. My SSD space is not that cheap as you’d like to think. My time is not that cheap, to start over with a tool that doesn’t suck, and can produce a usb stick which can boot and store another ISO image on it.

Keep not caring.

Use dd then.
