Thanks, but I actually did get persistence going with the Debian Live with some help from Thomas Schmitt earlier. GRML too but they provide a tool to create a working stick. Your method seems rather more complicated but great if it works for you! I have to admit I'm getting sick and tired of the performance of my random old USB sticks. I built a USB SSD some years ago but it has other uses. I guess it's time to build or buy another.
