Care to explain? If I understand correctly, a live system - is thought to cope with a broader range of hardware (meaning: it doesn't know exactly which hardware it's going to wake up on next) - is not supposed to touch the host system persistent storage (aka disks) - is not supposed to scribble on its own medium (unless you've set aside a partition for that) Perhaps it just has a tmpfs overlaid on its file system, so any change is only ephemeral. so it is a slightly different usage profile than tailor-fitting a USB stick for a given target system. Both have their uses. Cheers -- t
